Rock Hill Police have obtained warrants for two people in connection with a fatal hit-and-run and carjacking last weekend.

Gilverto Josue Corniel, 24, and Victoria Jaye Kistler, both of Charlotte, are wanted in Nov. 12 deadly crash involving a motorcycle, according to a police statement.

The crash happened around 12:30 p.m. at the intersection of Heckle Boulevard and Russell Street, where police say a dark-colored Chrysler 300 on Russell Street ran a stop sign and struck a 2002 Harley Davidson motorcycle in the intersection.

The driver of the motorcycle, 21-year-old Josh Moore, was killed.

The Chrysler continued up an embankment and crashed into an obstruction, authorities have said. The driver of the Chrysler then fled on foot and a short time later carjacked a Jeep. The Jeep was recovered this week in Charlotte.

Authorities have obtained a warrant for Corniel that charges him with leaving the scene of an accident resulting in death, and a warrant for Kistler for obstruction of justice, according to Capt.
