COWETA COUNTY, Ga. - In the early hours of July 5, a hit-and-run occurred on State Route 154 in Coweta County.

At approximately 12:52 a.m., Georgia State Patrol Troopers were dispatched to the scene where an unidentified vehicle had struck a pedestrian in the eastbound lane near Mile Post 8.

Following the initial impact, the driver of the unknown vehicle failed to stop and provide aid or wait for law enforcement. 

Due to poor lighting conditions of the roadway, three additional vehicles struck the pedestrian lying in the roadway, according to GSP.
