Two Fatal Hit-and-Runs in Newark

Newark’s streets are reeling from two devastating hit-and-runs in just days: one early Friday morning on Empire Street left one dead, another fighting for life, while last Saturday’s crash at Park Avenue and North 7th Street claimed two lives in a crosswalk. Police arrested a suspect in the second case, facing serious charges, but justice can’t undo the loss. Authorities are still hunting the driver in the first incident — a chilling reminder of the deadly consequences when drivers flee the scene.
