A Knightdale man was arrested Monday in the Oct. 29 hit-and-run death of a Raleigh man on Poole Road.
Reports say that Leake was under the influence when he unintentionally hit Faison while he was walking home from work. Leake was previously convicted of driving while impaired in Raleigh in 2009.
A Highway Patrol officer reported that Leake was also charged with insurance fraud after giving a false report that his vehicle was damaged due to his wife hitting a deer.
He is set to appear in court this afternoon and his bond was set at $351,000.
