PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- A driver wanted in a deadly hit-and-run outside a Northeast Philadelphia bar turned himself in to police on Tuesday morning.

Police say Frederick Falcon, 22, struck 24-year-old Jason Corona with a vehicle after they fought at The Union Tap on Comly Road near Roosevelt Boulevard early Sunday.

Corona was in town from Vermont to celebrate a relative who recently returned home from a military deployment.

Police believe the incident was sparked following a fight over Corona's sister. 

Falcon is charged with murder, involuntary manslaughter, homicide by vehicle, and other related offenses.
