A former White Mountain Apache Police officer has been indicted after the deadly hit-and-run of a 30-year-old woman on the reservation last Thanksgiving.
The crash happened Nov. 23 around 3:30 a.m. on Highway 73, just south of the Hon-Dah Casino. Authorities say former officer, Ben Anderson, 49, was on duty when he hit Billy Iris with his patrol car and left the scene.A week ago, a federal grand jury in Phoenix returned a two-count indictment against Anderson, a news release from the U.S. Attorney's Office in Arizona says.He's accused of engaging in misleading conduct to hinder or delay and corruptly altering and concealing evidence.
Anderson later acknowledged that only minutes before being dispatched to the scene, he had driven the same stretch of highway and felt a ‘bump’ but continued southbound on SR 73 without stopping to investigate," the news release said.Anderson is accused of investigating Iris' death by speaking with paramedics, interviewing witnesses, briefing and directing officers, filling out an autopsy report and eventually notifying the victim's family of her death.
