Hit-and-Run Driver Strikes, Kills Man: Officials

Authorities are looking for a hit-and-run driver who they say struck and killed a pedestrian in southern New Jersey.

Atlantic County prosecutors say 26-year-old Kyle Marcy was struck around 4:10 a.m. Saturday in the area of Routes 30 and 9 in Absecon. They say the Galloway Township man had just got out of another vehicle shortly before he was struck by a dark, 2012 Honda Civic that stopped briefly before the driver left the scene.

Marcy was pronounced dead a short time later at a hospital.

No other injuries were reported.

Investigators say the Honda Civic has passenger-side damage. If you have any information on the incident, please call the Atlantic County Prosecutor's Office at 609-909-7800 or the Absecon Police Department at 609-641-0667.
