A Southampton man has pleaded guilty to leaving the scene of a deadly crash in Hampton Bays.
Prosecutors say Benjamin Sheen-Waltzer, 34, struck a 67-year-old man walking along a neighborhood roadway in March 2024.
The victim was taken to Peconic Bay Medical Center and pronounced dead shortly after arrival.
A broken ”M” from the emblem of a GMC vehicle was discovered among debris at the scene.
Surveillance footage of a pickup truck with the letter missing and front-end damage helped investigators ultimately track down Sheen-Waltzer.
He is due back in court on Nov. 16.
