There has not yet been an arrest in the hit-and-run accident that killed David Sherman, but the Burlington Times-News reported Tuesday that the woman accused of striking Elon professor Eugene Gooch with her car has pled guilty to misdemeanor death by vehicle.
Elon police say Mary Davis Murphy, 82, of Hebron Church Road in Mebane struck 57-year-old Gooch on April 3 while traveling west on University Drive.
Gooch was an avid bicyclist who joined the faculty in 1988 to teach chemistry.
