Police were able to quickly canvass the area in East Pasco and located the blue HHR Zuniga was driving in part because witnesses called 9-1-1 to report a man was car prowling in their neighborhood and he'd left the Chevy nearby!

He apparently had left his ID inside. Pasco Police said this about the situation:

"We  linked him to the hit and run. He is in the Franklin County Jail for Vehicular Assault, Felony Hit and Run, Driving with license suspended and the vehicle prowl. Thank you FB fans for all the tips and videos sent to us of this suspect. Team work makes the dream work!"

Zuniga is now facing a lot of time for these crimes.
