Charges have been dismissed against a man who turned himself in Friday in connection with the fatal hit-and-run of a local radio DJ.
Law enforcement sources told NY1 that police have dropped charges against Kevin Ozoria, 27, after he was arrested Friday in connection to the death of Jean Guerrero.
The decision was made because there was no evidence that Ozoria was actually behind the wheel during the crash.
Sources said witnesses had described a woman as leaving the driver's side immediately after the incident.
The 39-year-old Guerrero was hit and killed by a car in Brooklyn early Monday morning.
He was known as DJ Jinx Paul and worked at La Mega 97.9 FM.
Friday, mourners gathered at the RG Ortiz Funeral Home in Washington Heights to pay their last respects.
Guerrero's body will be flown to his home country of Ecuador for burial.
