NBC Augusta 26 News first told you William Jacobs was hit and killed by a car on Dresden Drive Thursday night.
Investigators now say Jacobs was run over by the tow truck Michael Brown was driving. Victoria Brown was also inside the truck.
Officers say Jacobs was visiting friends whose car was being repossessed. They tell us Jacobs and another man were trying to get the Browns' attention because the tow truck was damaging another car parked in the driveway during the repossession.

This is not a great article.. there was so much more to it than this. I'm so thankful to be alone with a clear record.
While that was a terrible accident and we are forever sorry for what happened.. you guys have no idea how much is missing from this article and what actually led up to this. Yes we turned ourselves in and yes im home. We did not intend to hurt anyone. Ever.
