LONGUEUIL, Que. – A Quebec man pleaded not guilty Thursday to a hit-and-run charge in the death of a two-year-old boy.
Rick Modi, 24, will remain behind bars pending his bail hearing Friday.
The boy was struck by a car in Saint-Constant on May 27 in front of his parents’ residence after somehow getting away from people who were looking after him in the backyard.
Modi, who was arrested Wednesday, lives on the same street as the victim.
