Abigail Hernandez was with her father and sister outside Dick’s Sporting Goods when a pickup truck ran into her.

FOX 5 Atlanta spoke to the girl’s heartbroken mother who said the family was holding hands when it happened.

The Gwinnett County Solicitor General said an investigation found the 18-year-old driver, who remains unnamed, was not driving recklessly, was not under the influence of any drugs or alcohol and did not leave the scene, all serious offenses that would have called for charges.

The Gwinnett County Police Department said they wanted to extend their condolences to the Hernandez family.

Sources: Georgia State landing new defensive coordinator from ACC champs


Dell McGee’s defensive staff overhaul as he enters Year 3 atop the Georgia State program is getting its most significant piece of the puzzle, FootballScoop has learned.

McGee is hiring Cam Clark, a senior analyst on Duke coach Manny Diaz’s 2025 Atlantic Coast Conference Champions staff, to run the Georgia State defense, sources tell FootballScoop.

It’s a notable hire for McGee, who is seeking to turn around Georgia State after going just 4-20 in his first two seasons at the helm.

While Clark arrives at Georgia State after assisting the Duke Blue Devils offense, his background is in defensive coaching.

He served two years as defensive coordinator at Football Championship Subdivision program Western Illinois, and he also ran the defense at Lamar University. Additionally, Clark was defensive coordinator at Georgia prep powerhouse Thomas County Central High School.

A former star player at Harding University, Clark obtained his master’s degree from Auburn University, where he served as a graduate assistant.

He has additional Football Bowls Subdivision experience from coaching under both Hugh Freeze and Gus Malzahn while serving on their respective staffs at Arkansas State.
