Belton Police made an arrest Tuesday night in a hit-and-run accident that left a teenager dead.

Ronal Norwood, 61, now faces charges for leaving the scene of that wreck that happened Friday night in the 2100 block of the Interstate 35 service road.

Richard Snyder, 13, was riding his bike when a car hit him. An ambulance took him to Scott and White Medical Center Temple, but he later died there.

A Belton Police Department spokesperson said Norwood came to police headquarters Saturday and told officers he was involved in the wreck. Officers impounded his car at that point before arresting him Tuesday night.
