Breakthrough in Deadly Hit-and-Run: WSPD Arrests Suspect

The Winston-Salem Police Department (WSPD) has apprehended a suspect in connection with a tragic hit-and-run incident believed to be intentional, which occurred Monday afternoon. At approximately 1:14 p.m. on June 2, officers arrived at the 2300 block of Burgundy Street, responding to reports of a collision involving a pedestrian. They found Tammy Denise Long, gravely injured. Emergency Medical Services brought her to a hospital, where she succumbed to her injuries. Community members expressed their sorrow on social media, honoring Long’s legacy within the city. A WSPD press statement suggests evidence points to the act being deliberate. While the suspect's relationship with Long remains unclear, it appears they had some prior acquaintance. Moses Renee Arnold, 37, was later taken into custody and charged with felony murder.
