Suspect In Deadly Hit And Run Makes First Court Appearance

The man police say was behind the wheel during a deadly hit and run crash made his first court appearance on Tuesday. 

Davionne Collier spent his 25th birthday in front of a Douglas County judge who set his bail at $150,000 for fleeing the scene of the fatal Memorial Day crash. On Sunday, Collier called 911 to turn himself in to Omaha Police officers.

Two year old Devon Morris was among three passengers injured in the crash near Fontenelle Boulevard and Curtis Ave. Morris was rushed from the scene, but later died at Nebraska Medical Center. He and a five year old child were unrestrained in the backseat when the crash occurred.

Collier's next court date is set for July 9th.
