Pal was arrested in connection with the hit-and-run deaths of 24-year-old Mitchell Vance and 18-year-old Devin Julius. Both died when the motorcycles they were riding were hit on Easter Sunday in Janesville.

Pal was arrested four days later in Park City, Illinois. Investigators located Pal after receiving a tip in the case from Pal’s father.
