George R. Evans

It’s rare for drivers who fatally strike pedestrians or cyclists in Chicago, or anywhere else in the U.S., to face serious charges unless they are intoxicated or flee the scene. However, George R. Evans, the man who struck and killed a still-unnamed 20-year-old woman last weekend in West Chatham, has been charged with a felony count of reckless homicide with a motor vehicle, along with traffic violations. Information provided by the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office suggests that there’s plenty of evidence to back up that charge.
