Police were called to the 2700 block of Comly Road on the city's far northeast side just after 2 a.m. on Sunday, Nov. 20 for a report of a pedestrian-involved accident, the department told Daily Voice.
There, officers found 24-year-old Jason Corona of Fredericksburg, Virginia badly wounded. He was rushed to Jefferson-Torresdale Hospital where he died from his injuries at 3 a.m., police said.
Investigators determined Corona was intentionally run over by a man with whom he had an argument, officials said. The suspect fled the scene northbound on Roosevelt Boulevard in a silver car, they added.
On Tuesday, Nov. 22, 22-year-old Frederick Falcon surrendered to police in connection with Corona's death, the department said.
He's charged with third-degree murder, homicide by vehicle, and related counts, according to police. State court records for Falcon's case were not immediately available.
