Gwinnett man convicted of deadly hit-and-run

Jhonathan Romero-Alvarez has been convicted of felony hit-and-run after a three-day trial this week, the Gwinnett County District Attorney’s Office said.

Romero-Alvarez, 25, was involved in a three-car accident in 2015, and was the only driver who fled the scene, the DA’s office said.

Romero-Alvarez and two other drivers struck Dante Wilson at the intersection of Boggs Road and Magnolia Pointe Boulevard in Duluth on Oct. 26 2015. Romero-Alvarez was identified as the first driver to hit Wilson, who died at the scene of the accident.
