Texarkana man arrested in deadly I-30 road worker hit-and-run

HOPE, Ark. – Arkansas State Police officials said a Texarkana man was arrested in connection with the July death of a road worker.

According to the ASP, 64-year-old George Willis was charged Thursday with one count of leaving the scene of a collision involving death. The charge stems from a July 21 incident.

Officials said troopers responded to a deadly hit-and-run collision near Mile Marker 18 on Interstate 30.

The victim, 44-year-old Jonathan Gary Williams of Sherwood, was a contractor for the Arkansas Department of Transportation.

ASP officials said Williams was struck and killed by a 2004 Buick Century while he was applying reflectors to the center line of the road from a specialized trailer. The car was disabled at the scene and abandoned. Witnesses told officials the driver fled on foot.
