$10K Reward Offered For Tips In Hit-And-Run Death
TRAVERSE CITY (WWJ/AP) - A $10,000 reward is being offered after a bicyclist was struck and killed by a hit-and-run driver in Traverse City.
Kelly Ann Boyce died after being hit around 2 a.m. Friday — and police say they are looking for the driver of a dark SUV or pickup truck that fled the scene.
