    MIAMI — A stripper is accused of a hit-and-run crash that critically injured a Canadian tourist in Miami.

    Police say Alexander Sanghwan — listed as being from Ontario — was walking on the edge of a road around 5:30 a.m. Sunday when he was struck by a vehicle, which then fled the scene.

    According to an affidavit released Monday night, 26-year-old Olivia Bennett is charged with hitting Sanghwan near Diamonds strip club.
