A teenage girl charged in a deadly hit-and-run in Omaha has had her case moved to juvenile court.

The 17-year-old is accused of hitting 64-year-old Frank Huerta and fleeing the scene on Sept. 8. She faces a felony charge of leaving the scene of an accident causing death.

KETV-TV  says the teen’s attorney asked for the case to be moved to juvenile court. A Douglas County judge approved the request on Tuesday.
