LAKE COUNTY, Calif. — The California Highway Patrol said Wednesday that it has arrested a Clearlake Oaks man for a Sunday morning hit-and-run that killed a Northshore woman.

William Len, 47, was taken into custody on Tuesday afternoon, according to a report from the CHP’s Clear Lake Area office.

The CHP said Len is the driver responsible for hitting and killing 24-year-old Amanda Arney of Nice.

At 12:10 a.m. Sunday Arney was walking eastbound on the south shoulder of Highway 20, west of Sayre Avenue in Nice, when she was struck by a vehicle, the CHP said.

She was thrown down an embankment and came to rest near a fence, where she was hidden by vegetation, the CHP said.

The CHP said its Ukiah Communications Center was notified that she had been found at 7:40 a.m. Sunday. When firefighters arrived, they found she had died of her injuries.

Investigators identified the vehicle that struck Arney and then fled the scene heading east on Highway 20 as a 2013 Toyota Sienna and began the search for it.

“We were able to get the make/model and color based upon the debris left at the scene,” Officer Joel Skeen told Lake County News.

Skeen said that vehicle information also matched a statement from a witness that he spoke to later on Sunday.

On Tuesday, through execution of search warrants and extensive investigation, the CHP said an area search was conducted with the assistance of the Lake County Sheriff’s Office.

As a result, Len was located in Clearlake and placed under arrest by the CHP just before 4 p.m. for felony hit-and-run and vehicular manslaughter.

Len, whose occupation is listed as “ride share,” was booked into the Lake County Jail on Tuesday night, where he remained in custody on Wednesday with bail set at $150,000.

Booking records show he is due to appear in Lake County Superior Court for arraignment on Thursday.
