An ex-porn star is accused of mowing down a pastor while driving under the influence of drugs and drink before fleeing the scene to see a celebrity buddy.

Katherine Colabella, 31, was arrested in Miami Beach and charged with fleeing the scene of a serious bodily injury accident. She used the stage name 'Kitty Bella' throughout her adult entertainment career.

NBC Miami said Colabella drove a 2019 Mercedes C300 along the MacArthur Causeway on the night of Mar. 25. She hit the Rev. Noé Aguilar as he rode his bicycle home from work.

Colabella allegedly continued driving to the Continuum tower. The ex-porn star allegedly met up with La Mar C. Taylor, the creative director for pop sensation The Weeknd, instead of stopping to help the injured father-of-two.

Police on Friday released a video of paramedics treating Aguilar at the crash site. With a significant head injury, he was taken to the hospital and placed in a medically induced coma.

Another video showed the ex-porn star telling detectives her side of the incident the next day. A valet at Continuum saw her Mercedes Benz's cracked windshield and dented hood.

Colabella, of Cooper City, admitted to detectives that Colabella had been drinking prior to the incident and had panicked and fled the scene.

The police report noted the Continuum employees' claim that the ex-porn star '[appeared] like she was drunk.'

The valet who discovered her car was damaged had phoned the cops that night to have it taken away.

On Mar. 26, Colabella stopped by the police station to enquire about her automobile, according to body camera footage.

As she discussed heading to the building to see her 'famous friend,' Taylor, she was spotted taking swigs of water in between statements.

Colabella was arrested shortly after and charged with abandoning the scene of a significant bodily injury collision and careless driving with serious physical harm.

She was released after paying a bond of $7,500. According to court documents, the ex-porn star's public counsel entered a not guilty plea on Apr. 6. A trial date has been set for Jun. 28.

Police also released video of Aguilar's shattered bicycle and paramedics treating him on the spot.

According to family members, Aguilar, a member of the Pentecostal Church of God, suffered a head injury that necessitated brain surgery and was placed in a medically induced coma.

They created a Gofundme account to help cover the pastor's medical expenses.

"My dad is normally, like, a caring person who cares about his family," his daughter Genesis told WSVN.

"I just don't like, for me, to him hurt like that. It's very painful to me that he's not here with us. My dad is a very special man to me because he's very caring," she added.

"It's a devastating situation for our family," his son, Chris, also told the network. "It's hard seeing him in the situation he is right now: in that bed in the hospital."

Local 10 said that Aguilar ultimately awoke from his coma and communicated with his family, albeit he remains hospitalized.
