A man accused in a deadly hit-and-run crash has been sentenced to two years probation for misdemeanor motor vehicle homicide.
Mark Fleming was sentenced Wednesday afternoon after earlier No Contest.
Police say he hit Roy Yeck last January 30th near North 30th Street and Newport Avenue, then left the scene and went directly to a body shop to look into fixing the damage to his vehicle.
Yeck later died of his injuries. Fleming eventually turned himself in and later took a plea deal, reducing the charge to misdemeanor motor vehicle homicide, which carries a maximum sentence of one year in prison.
In court on Wednesday, Fleming’s attorney said his client did not remember hitting Roy Yeck and said he didn’t realize what had happened until he turned on the news that day. He said, “Not a day goes by Fleming doesn’t think of Mr. Yeck,” and he wishes he could change places with him.
Fleming said, “I want to apologize to the Yeck family. I am truly sorry for what I did.”
The victim’s brother, Jim Yeck, said, “You hear those things but you don’t know how much they really mean it. You really don’t.”
“It all boils down to someone being careless. I think he deserves to serve some time behind bars.”
