The tragic hit-and-run crash that left a man dead and his elderly parents injured in June 2017 started with a stolen backpack.
The suspects allegedly stole the backpack from a Department of Public Works yard and, despite not even being chased, ran a red light in Jeep Cherokee and sideswiped the victims' Chevy vehicle.
Paul McKechnie Jr., 51, was killed in the crash, and his parents, including Paul McKechnie Sr., 73. The three victims lived in Warren.
