A Mobile County grand jury will consider reckless manslaughter and four other charges against a Citronelle man accused in a hit-and-run accident that killed a Mississippi woman last month.
Wyatt Lane Newburn, 26, gave up his right to a preliminary hearing on Monday. In addition to reckless manslaughter, the grand jury will review charges of leaving the scene of an accident, theft, receiving stolen property and an unrelated escape charge.
“The defendant, Mr. Newbern, was driving a high rate of speed, hit the victim; victim’s car then collided with a tree, and the defendant left the scene and was apprehended Mississippi,” Morgan said. Morgan said Newburn eventually confessed to Mobile County sheriff’s deputies. But he added that by the time police in Biloxi arrested him the next day, it was too late to determine whether he had been drinking.
“When he was apprehended, he was very dirty,” he said. “He was in the woods and stuff. For specific injuries, I mean, he wasn’t hurt enough where he wasn’t able to go see the person he wanted to see.”
