A truck matching that description was towed away from a street in Everett but police did not confirm that it was the truck involved.

Williams was arraigned in Charlestown District Court on charges of leaving the scene of an accident after causing death and operating a motor vehicle after suspension.

His bail was set for $1,500 with the condition that he stays away from the victim's family and not drive. He is scheduled to reappear in court on Sept. 19.
