A Chicago tow truck driver was killed in a hit-and-run crash on Christmas Eve in Wisconsin.
The crash happened around 6:41 p.m. Tuesday on the eastbound shoulder of I-94 east of Sawyer Road in Waukesha County, Wisconsin.
The tow truck driver was loading a disabled vehicle on the shoulder of I-94 when he was struck by a blue minivan that fled the scene after the crash, the Waukesha County Sheriff's Department said.
The victim was taken to a local hospital, where he was later pronounced dead. He has been identified as 40-year-old Hussain Farhat, authorities said.
Farhat worked for Yaffo Towing in Chicago, the sheriff said.
The sheriff's department received a tip Wednesday about a possible suspect wanted in the hit-and-run crash, and a 39-year-old man from Wales, Wisconsin later turned himself in to police. The suspect is facing a felony charge for Hit & Run Causing Death, the sheriff said.
The Waukesha County Sheriff's Department and the Wisconsin State Patrol continue to investigate the crash.
No further information was immediately available.
