FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WANE) — Sgt. Joshua Hartup, the veteran Fort Wayne police officer who struck and killed a local attorney as he crossed Main Street downtown, pleaded guilty Wednesday to failing to yield to a pedestrian in misdemeanor court.

Hartup, a Vice & Narcotics officer, appeared before Magistrate John Custer and at the side of his attorney, Adam Henry. He agreed to pay a $35.50 fine for the infraction.

An officer with the Fort Wayne Police Department since 1999, police records showed that Hartup had a history of four other crashes in a squad car, but this crash on April 19 around 7:30 p.m. resulted in the death of Henry Najedski, who had the right of way as he crossed Main Street at Calhoun.
