A 34 year-old man, who turned himself in to Salinas Police officers (in connection with a hit-and-run accident in Salinas last month), now faces a charge of Vehicular Manslaughter With Gross Negligence. That’s because 41 year-old Bernardina Leon has died. She and her 6 year-old daughter were hit while walking in the crosswalk on North Main Street in Salinas. The little girl was released from the hospital several weeks ago.
