JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office took to social media Monday renewing its effort to find a man believed to be responsible for a fatal hit-and-run crash in January on University Boulevard.
“We continue to search for 24-year-old Alexander Rivera-Russo after he caused a deadly crash at the beginning of this year,” the social media post states.
“On Friday, January 2, 2026, Rivera-Russo was speeding along University Boulevard South near Atlantic Boulevard. He hit a 27-year-old woman’s car, causing a fiery wreck. The woman passed away at the scene. Rivera-Russo walked away from his damaged vehicle and the scene of the crash, a felony in Florida,” the post states.
