The Brief
CHANDLER, Ariz. - Family and friends came together today to remember Nicole Snell.
The backstory:
She was the Uber driver killed during a ride last weekend, along with her passenger, after being hit by a suspected drunk driver.
Services were held in Chandler on Sept. 28 for the 35-year-old.
Snell's family said she was on her last ride of the night and was only two miles from home when she died in a crash last weekend.
"So many people loved Nikky, and adored her and her dog Bernini," a family member said during the memorial service.
Police said Snell was hit and killed by a suspected drunk driver who ran a red light. The impact of the collision caused her car to hit a pole, killing both Snell and her passenger, identified as 33-year-old Marisa Jorgenson.
