A four-year-old in Iberia Parish is dead following a hit-and-run.

Deputies say the boy somehow got out of the car he was riding in as it was pulling out onto Admiral Doyle Drive. He was then struck by a car which was also traveling on Admiral Doyle. The driver of that car, Ulises Brooks, fled the scene, but police found the car a short time later. Brooks has been taken into custody and charged with hit-and-run driving.
