UPDATE: Cyclist killed in hit-and-run accident

A bicyclist who died Sunday after being hit by a pickup was 32-year-old Lucinda Gillis of Olivehurst, according to the Yuba-Sutter office of the California Highway Patrol.

The pickup driver, who fled from the scene, was identified as Andrew Louis Cornett, 24, of Linda. He was arrested near his Park Avenue home and was being held Monday in Yuba County Jail on suspicion of vehicular manslaughter, driving under the influence and hit and run driving.

Cornett was driving south on North Beale Road when he ran a red light at Feather River Boulevard and hit Gillis as she was about to finish crossing the street, the CHP said.

Cornett fled in the pickup but abandoned it a short distance away. When a CHP officer found him at his home, he fled to a neighbor's shed and was arrested, a report said.

Gillis died at Rideout Memorial Hospital.

Bail for Cornett was set at $100,000.

Anyone who witnessed the accident is asked to call the CHP at 674-5141.
