Vigil held for fatal hit-and-run victim in Camden as new details emerge

As the Mahan family mourns the tragic loss of 41-year-old Carla Mahan , they’re grateful for the overwhelming support.

“I love y’all,” said her father, Carlos Mahan. “This is what lifts me up.”

Loved ones held a vigil near 7th and Tulip streets in Camden, where detectives said the mother of three was deliberately struck by a vehicle and killed on September 25.

It’s an agonizing thought for Carlos.

“Just imagine. It rewinds in my head. What was my last daughter’s pain, and that’s what hurts me,” he said.
