SCRANTON, Pa. — A man faces homicide by motor vehicle charges after a deadly crash in Lackawanna County.
Officers say 87-year-old William Kent hit another car near the intersection of Harrison Avenue and Mulberry Street in September.
Kent reportedly told police he didn't want to miss a scheduled surgery, so he asked someone on the street for a ride to the hospital and never called 911.
A passenger in the other car, Carlos Hernandez, was taken to the hospital where he later died.
