A Roanoke County grand jury has indicted a man in the death of a runner who was struck by a car.
Jeffery Martin Young is charged with murder and felony hit-and-run.
Thomas Farrell, a 49-year-old lawyer, was jogging when he was struck by a vehicle Jan. 28. Young's white Jeep had been linked to the incident, and police previously called Young a person of interest in the case.
The 31-year-old Young has been in custody since two days after Farrell's death for allegedly attacking a woman with a stick at a supermarket. Young faces charges of malicious wounding, felonious assault, assault and battery and obstructing justice.
