Tucson, AZ (November 11, 2024) – On Friday night, 83-year-old Eleanore C. Johnson died in a hit-and-run crash on North Alvernon Way.

Tucson Police reported that Johnson was crossing in an implied crosswalk just before 9 p.m. in the 3000 block of North Alvernon Way when a 2022 Toyota Tacoma, traveling north, hit her.

The driver of the Tacoma initially fled the scene but returned approximately ten minutes later. 

During their investigation, detectives discovered that the driver, identified as 38-year-old Carlos V. Pina, had switched seats with the Tacoma’s passenger before returning to the scene.

Police determined that Pina was impaired at the time of the collision. Authorities charged him with manslaughter, leaving the scene of a fatal collision, and child abuse, as there was a juvenile passenger in the vehicle. 

The passenger, who switched seats with Pina, faced charges of hindering prosecution.
