SOMERVILLE, Mass. (AP) - Police have made an arrest in connection with a hit-and-run in Massachusetts that killed a beloved school teacher and administrator.
Middlesex District Attorney Marian Ryan says 55-year-old Edward Clark, of Norwood, struck Allison Donovan and another woman in a crosswalk in Somerville on Feb. 8 and drove from the scene. Donovan died.
A not-guilty plea to a charge of leaving the scene of a deadly crash was entered on Clark’s behalf at his arraignment Friday. He was released without bail.

Donovan, of Somerville, was a teacher and principal in Watertown schools.
The case went unsolved for almost a week until a Tufts University officer spotted a black pickup truck with front end damage like the one caught in surveillance.
Clark said he thought he hit a barrel or traffic cone.
