Members of the Collinsville community held a vigil Monday afternoon for the victim of a fatal hit and run last week.

22-year-old Anthony Connors was found in a ditch a week ago. The Collinsville police were not available for an update today, but previously said they have narrowed their search to a pickup truck from the early 2000's. The vigil was held near the scene of the accident along Route 157 around 1PM.
