Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy has charged JC Deandrey Hogan, 30 (DOB: 11/22/1988) of Detroit, in connection with a fatal car crash that killed Gregory Anderson, age 62, also of Detroit.
On March 16, 2019 at approximately 8:43 p.m., Detroit police officers were dispatched to the scene of a hit-and-run that occurred at Van Dyke Avenue and East Seven Mile Road in Detroit.

Further, the defendant and his nine-year-old son were located in their vehicle, which had been driven off the roadway into a nearby tree.
