CHEROKEE COUNTY, Ga. — More charges were announced for an Amazon delivery truck driver who allegedly was involved in a fatal hit-and-run on Tuesday.
According to Cherokee County Sheriff's Department, London Best, 24, is facing additional charges related to drugs:
- Possession of Marijuana less than 1 oz
- Possession of a Schedule 1 Narcotic (THC Wax)
- Possession of Drug Related Objects
This development came after deputies said they had searched Best's work truck. Aside from those charges, Best is still being charged with first-degree vehicular homicide and leaving the scene of an accident resulting in death.
It happened on Nov. 12, around 6:30 p.m., deputies said, on Cumming Highway near Jordan Lane. That's where 79-year-old Sandra Fitts was found dead after being hit by a car.
A Canton Police Department officer soon located a truck after it was seen turning on Bishop Drive. Authorities said the damage was consistent with the scene’s evidence and had identified the Amazon truck as the vehicle involved in the incident.
