Rick Modi pleaded guilty to hit-and-run causing the death of the small Dominique Wenga, 2 years, on the morning of may 27, 2017 in a residential street in St-Constant.

The 24-year old man was travelling in his car when he heard a noise after an impact. He continued his road without stopping in order not to be late for a hockey tournament to benefit Children’s miracle network.
