Fielder later succumbed to his injuries and died, sparking a manhunt for the driver responsible for hitting him, who reportedly fled the scene in a Toyota Tundra.

Police identified two suspects, Seth Rokitka and Tristan Holland, and both had been arrested by Monday morning.

Holland was taken into custody late Sunday night in Shelby County, Tennessee. Roktika was found in Marshall County, Mississippi after his wrecked truck was discovered there Monday morning.

Holland has been charged with accessory after the fact, and law enforcement has not yet said what charges Roktika will face.
