Police: Illegal Alien Stopped To Get Gas Minutes After Running Over Virginia Man
MANASSAS, VA - On Monday, officers with the Prince William County Police Department arrested Walner Alberto Pichinte Echeverria, 35, following a fatal hit-and-run on May 6.
The victim, 62-year-old Alberto Anthony Marino, had already been hit by another car and was lying in the road when a Nissan Xterra, reportedly driven by Echeverria ran over him, without stopping.
A few minutes after running over Marino, surveillance footage captures Echeverria pulling into a gas station, and calmly pumping gas, before heading off to work, according to court documents.
