A 16-year old girl was killed in a hit and run early Thursday and police now have a suspect in custody. 20-year-old Pedro G. Garcia, of Marion, is being held in connection with the fatal hit-and-run. The coroner says the victim, 16-year-old Reamey M. Bell of Sweetser, was struck and pinned against another vehicle. She died at the scene, and the car that hit her drove away. Police later located a black Pontiac belonging to Garcia that fit the description. He’s been charged with leaving the scene of an accident resulting in death. More charges are possible.
