Shortly after 8 a.m. on Oct. 28, another motorist found the body of Andrew Miller, 29, lying along State Road, near Mill Road. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Authorities said that Miller had been walking northbound from the Torresdale train station to his apartment when a vehicle struck him along the roadway. The motorist then left the scene.
