    JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -

    The Florida Highway Patrol said an 18-year-old driver of a pickup truck who struck and killed a pedestrian Monday night and then drove off was arrested about three hours after the crash.

    Jacksonville Fire-Rescue responded to the fatal crash just before 8 p.m. at the intersection of Timuquana Road and Seaboard Avenue in the Wesconnett area.

    Rescuers said Alphonso Dow, 65, of Jacksonville, was unresponsive when they arrived and died at the scene.

    Video:

    The FHP report said Dow was walking south on Timuquana when he was struck. Troopers found part of a headline and side-view mirror from a Ford F-150 pickup truck at the scene.

    Troopers found Seth Miguel Davis and his vehicle on Roosevelt Boulevard, about 4 miles from the crash scene.

    Davis was charged with leaving the scene of an accident involving death and was being held in the Duval County. A judge ordered Tuesday afternoon that his bond be set at $100,000.

    "He does seem like a good kid," Davis' attorney Neil Weinreb said. "He does not seem like to me like he would be any type of a flight risk or a danger to the community whatsoever, so I do hope that his bond at some point will be reduced to a more reasonable bond."

    Friends of Dow said they are grieving his loss.

    "He's going to be missed," said Pauline Durden, a friend of Dow's. "He had good talent. He was nice. He was quiet."

    Weinreb said the felony charges Davis is facing is also tough on the 18-year-old's family.

    "I think anybody's family would be quite upset having someone charged with felony and a very serious crime," Weinreb said. "He basically is a good kid that just graduated from high school fairly recently and was planning to attend college. So I think it would upset any family if those plans were interrupted."
