Man sought in fatal Omaha hit-and-run surrenders

Davionne Collier

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — A man who police say fled the scene of a fatal Omaha crash has surrendered.

The Omaha Police Department said in a news release that 24-year-old Davionne Collier turned himself in Sunday and was booked into Douglas County Jail. He’s charged with a felony: failure to stop and render aid after a serious or fatal injury accident. Court records don’t list the name of an attorney who could comment for him about the case.

Police say Collier was driving a sport utility vehicle that collided with a car on May 28, fatally injuring 2-year-old Devon Morris and injuring his 5-year-old brother and two other people in the car.

Police say Collier and a passenger in his SUV walked away from the crash scene. Another passenger in the SUV was hospitalized.
