Hit and Run Accident Devastates Rogers Park Family

The tragedy of car accidents happens not in the property damage and minor cuts and bruises that may occur but in the lives that are lost and in the lives that are changed forever.

Just a few days before Christmas, Felix Worthon and his six year old son, Jeremia, went to meet Maria Worthon at the bus stop to walk home the beloved wife and mother.  As Maria and Jeremia were crossing the street, a car came speeding down the street and struck them.  The driver fled the scene of the hit and run accident, Jeremia was taken to the hospital in critical condition and Maria was pronounced dead at the scene.

Felix must now face 2010 and the years to come without his wife and Jeremia, if he survives, must face the future without his mother.

Criminal charges of murder and driving under the influence (DUI) have been brought against the driver who was found after the accident.  The family may also be entitled to recover damages in a civil trial.
