Canton Man Struck, Killed By Car
UPDATE: Canton Police say it was a Chevy Impala that struck and killed Christian A. Thornton early Thursday morning and then drove off. They are unsure of the color of the vehicle, but say it was a later model, between 2000 and 2005. They're asking the public's help, along with the help of any body-shop workers in the area. They say the vehicle will likely have damage to the front left end, in the fog lamp area.
