Hit and Run Driver Turns Himself In after Injuring Pedestrian

In California, a driver allegedly caused a pedestrian accident and instead of stopping to check on the man that he hit, the driver proceeded to flee the scene of the collision. However, news sources say that a few hours later, the driver turned himself into local police. On the day of the collision, the 20-year-old victim was riding his skateboard in San Marcos, California when he was struck by the driver. Several people heard the crash and ran outside, but none of them actually saw the vehicle or the driver. Police reports show that the victim sustained serious head injuries and the hospital listed him as being in critical condition shortly he was admitted.

After the responsible turned himself in to police, officers started to compile evidence for their case. They say that when they went to the man's home they located the vehicle that was involved in the wreck. At this time, no charges have been filed, but police say that charges are likely.
