ODESSA, Texas — An Odessa man has been charged in relation to a fatal hit and run that took place Wednesday night.
Jose Angel Ramirez-Rodriguez, 46, has been charged with failure to stop and render aid involving death and criminal negligent homicide.
According to OPD, Ramirez-Rodriguez was traveling westbound on University in a 2013 Ford F-350. Felix John Jaramillo, 48, was driving a 2005 Harley Davidson motorcycle eastbound on University at the same time.
Investigators determined that Ramirez-Rodriguez failed to yield right of way to Jaramillo while attempting to turn onto Bonham. His vehicle stuck the motorcycle, which caused it to skid into a Dodge Challenger that was travelling behind the truck.
Ramirez-Rodriguez failed to stop and render aid to Jaramillo. He was located just before 2 a.m. on June 6 in the 3500 block of Andrews Highway and arrested.
Jaramillo was taken to Medical Center Hospital where he was later pronounced deceased.
The investigation is still underway and Ramirez-Rodriguez has been transported to the Ector County Law Enforcement Center.
