VILLA RIDGE, Mo. — A 56-year-old man who was killed in a hit-and-run in Franklin County was identified Sunday, and the Missouri State Highway Patrol is searching for the suspect.
MSHP said Jason Gilley was walking in the right lane of Highway 100 at Cromwell Drive around 3:10 a.m. Sunday when he was struck by a vehicle. He was taken to the hospital but died from his injuries.
Troopers later found a broken passenger-side mirror from the driver's dark-colored vehicle. Investigators believe the vehicle is a truck but don't know the make, model and color.
Anyone with information on the incident, or who has seen a truck missing a mirror, should call MSHP at 636-300-2800.
