TOLEDO, Ohio — A Holland man is in custody after an 86-year-old woman was killed in a hit and run in a parking lot on Sunday afternoon.
According to Toledo Police, Antonio Lockett, 45, was arrested and charged with failing to stop after an accident for allegedly driving a vehicle that struck and killed a woman walking in the parking lot of the Monroe Street Carryout near the 2800 block of Monroe Street.
In a police report, authorities said Lockett backed up over the victim, then struck another vehicle while still dragging the victim with his vehicle. Lockett then continued backing into the street. Police said Lockett then got out of his vehicle, retrieved the victim's hat from the roadway and placed it on the victim's head. Then, realizing the victim was deceased, Lockett fled the scene, police said.
A report from the Lucas County Coroner's Office Monday identified the victim as Gloria Everett. The office said an autopsy determined the cause of death to be Multiple Traumatic Injuries after she was struck by a vehicle. The coroner's office said the manner of death is currently undetermined pending further investigation.
Police apprehended Lockett in South Toledo and impounded his vehicle. He was booked into the Lucas County jail.
Lockett had just been released from the Lucas County jail on Oct. 18, where he was booked on Oct. 17 on burglary charges.
Lockett appeared in court for an arraignment Monday morning. A judge set his bond at $150,000 no percent. He is due back in court on Oct. 29 for a preliminary hearing.
Authorities say the fatal hit-and-run investigation is ongoing and anyone with information can call Crimestoppers at 419-255-1111.
