WICHITA, Kan. — A Hutchinson woman who was arrested in connection to what prosecutors say was a hit-and-run death of a man in west Wichita last week has been charged with first-degree murder.
Thirty-six-year-old Ashley Corley was booked over the weekend for failure to stop at an accident resulting in death and driving while suspended.
Along with the first-degree murder charge, Corley was also charged with leaving the scene of an accident and a misdemeanor count of driving while her license is suspended or canceled.
Police said the victim was on the hood of a moving car near 9th and St. Paul on Friday morning when he fell off. He died at a local hospital. Police have not released the victim's name.
