According to a police affidavit, on Oct. 30, 2021, Hernandez was walking on the frontage road when a black truck hit him and the driver sped off shortly after.

Police say Guerra was driving the truck and surveillance footage showed Guerra stopping briefly before taking off.

He later turned himself in to authorities.
