RALEIGH, N.C. — U.S. Marshals coordinating with Raleigh Police have a person in custody who is believed to have driven the van that hit and killed WRAL employee Erin Simanskis last month, Wake County District Attorney Lorrin Freeman told WRAL News on Monday morning.
Simanskis, who was a researcher for 5 On Your Side and assignment editor for WRAL News, was on her way home from work Jan. 21 when she was involved in a fender bender on slick roads. She was outside her vehicle exchanging information with the other driver when a white van hit her and left the scene.
