Drunken driver gets 5 years in pedestrian death
Posted Apr 29, 2021
A South Jersey motorist who admitted he was drunk when he struck and killed a man who had just gotten out of his car following an earlier crash was recently sentenced to five years in prison.
Jesus A. Leal-Corona, 49, of Monroeville, was driving on Route 77 in Elk Township on the evening of Sept. 27, 2019, when he hit Frankie L. Hensley, 24, of Philadelphia.
Hensley was a passenger in a car involved in a crash moments earlier at the intersection of 77 and Fislerville Road and had gotten out to check on the driver of the other vehicle when he was struck, police said.
A pipe bomb was located over the weekend in Elk Township in Noble County.
According to Noble County Sheriff Jason Mackie, the property owner on Crum Ridge Road found the explosive.
“The property owner was out on his property, comes across this piece of pipe,” described Mackie. “Calls me and I got a look at it, and sure enough there was a pipe bomb that somebody tried to set off, but it didn’t go. It was a live bomb, their fuse just failed … I would assume somebody probably lit it and threw it out the window of a vehicle.”
