It's around 4:45 AM. January 3, 2012.

It's a windy morning and a chilling 25 degrees outside.

A motorist driving along Stafford Road in Wales sees something lying on the side of the road.

The driver stops their car and immediately calls the police.

The body of a young man, later identified as 23-year-old Cory Cane of Worcester, lies motionless along the south side of the tight two-lane Route 19.

Cory had been struck by a passing vehicle.

Police believe his body may have been left out in the cold on the side of the road for over 3 hours.

Nearly 12 years later, and the fatal hit-and-run remains unsolved.
