The incident occurred on Oct. 15, around 9 p.m., near Orlando where the victim was struck by a car. He was still in the street when the suspect pulled his car to the side of the curb and grabbed the deceased’s belongings. Police spokeswoman Michelle Guido told the Orlando Sentinel that the theft also made it difficult for authorities to identify the body of the deceased and added, “This person went out of his way to take something that didn’t belong to him as others were stopping to render aid to a dying man.”
