Twenty-month-old Quinton Simon was reported missing over a month ago in Savannah. Law enforcement officials said they had enough evidence to presume the toddler was dead, yet his body has not been found.

Yesterday, a man was killed by a hit-and-run driver on Highway 23 between Claxton Road and Brigham Landing Road in Burke County.  The victim was identified as Henry "Bubba" Moss, Quinton Simon's grandfather.

Police believe Moss had a flat tire and was walking back to his home when he was hit.

The search continues for the hit-and-run driver.  The Burke County Sheriff's Office is offering a reward for information leading to an arrest in the case.
