LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — A 24-year-old man has accepted a plea deal and been convicted in a hit-and-run accident that left an 11-year-old Lincoln boy with brain injuries.

Court records say Jared St. Louis, of Staplehurst, pleaded no contest to felony failure to stop and render aid and to misdemeanor driving under the influence. The latter charge was lowered in exchange for St. Louis’ plea. He is scheduled to be sentenced on April 29.

Police say Dominic “Dom” Walker was riding his bike to Culler Middle School on Oct. 1 when he was hit by a pickup that ran a red light.
