A man has been charged in a hit-and-run collision with a moped early Saturday morning that left a woman dead in Greenville County report, news sources.
According to the South Carolina Highway Patrol, at 1:25 a.m. the woman was riding a Honda moped on Wade Hampton Boulevard when the moped was struck from behind by a motor vehicle that left the scene of the collision.
The impact threw the rider, who has been identified by the Greenville County Coroner’s Office as a 21-year-old Taylors woman, to the ground. She was declared dead at the scene of the collision. According to the Coroner’s Office, she was not wearing a helmet at the time of the crash.

As a Greenville auto accident attorney, I have witnessed first-hand the grief and sorrow of those left behind after an unexpected death. My heartfelt condolences go out to the woman’s family, friends and loved ones. Being a Greenville personal injury lawyer, I know how important it is for grieving people to have a strong support network. I hope the woman’s loved ones are getting the care and support they need during this difficult time.
