Marvin Calhoun succumbs to injuries after Tallahassee crash

TALLAHASSEE, FL, (March 5, 2026) — A pedestrian died following a hit-and-run crash in Tallahassee, authorities said.

Marvin Calhoun was struck by a vehicle near Capital Circle NW and W. Tennessee Street just before 7 p.m. He was taken to Tallahassee Memorial Hospital, where he later succumbed to his injuries.

Investigators determined that a black BMW fled the scene immediately after the collision. Surveillance footage later showed a damaged 2014 BMW 528i near the area shortly before the crash.

Police identified Nigeria Grant as the suspected driver using license plate reader data and insurance records. Grant was arrested on March 31 and faces a felony charge for leaving the scene of a crash involving death.

The investigation remains ongoing.


FATAL ACCIDENT INVESTIGATION

In many hit-and-run cases, at-fault drivers believe they can escape accountability by leaving the scene. However, when apprehended, they will face serious charges.

Leaving the scene of an accident is a criminal offense, and statistics show that more than one hit-and-run crash occurs every minute on U.S. roads.

Candice Bond, an experienced hit-and-run accident attorney, emphasized that in such situations it is critical to have a prompt, independent investigation conducted by a qualified attorney to protect a victim’s rights.

“Having the proper resources is extremely important to investigate a hit-and-run accident case and prove negligence,” said Bond, Managing Partner of Bond Legal.

“Road conditions, visibility, and lighting are all contributing factors that must be carefully evaluated,” Bond added.

These measures are essential in helping families who have lost a loved one seek justice and obtain the compensation they deserve.


WRONGFUL DEATH CLAIM

Pending the investigation, the family of Marvin Calhoun could pursue a wrongful death claim. Family members of wrongful death victims may seek damages for loss of companionship, pain and suffering, and emotional distress following a tragic accident such as this.

“The stress and grief can be overwhelming after losing a loved one in an accident,” said Stefano Formica, of counsel at Bond Legal.

“We understand what families endure during such times, and ensuring their rights are protected is essential. A wrongful death attorney will monitor the official investigation and help safeguard their legal rights and best interests.”
