NORTH PLATTE, Neb. (KNOP) - A Crimestoppers unit in El Paso, Texas is looking for the driver of the car that killed a young Nebraska native on Christmas Day in a hit-and-run accident. There is very little information to go on, other than the driver was a woman, and she was driving a dark vehicle.

The family of 24-year old Laramie Fowler is grieving the loss of this young man. Fowler was a 2015 graduate of Stapleton High School in Logan County before moving to in El Paso, Texas.
