‘General Hospital’ actor releases statement after son is charged in fatal hit-and-run

Jack Antonio Sabàto appeared in an Anchorage court Thursday, charged in a hit-and-run that killed pedestrian Carl Simmonds. Prosecutors say a white Chevrolet Tahoe struck Simmonds on Airport Heights Drive early Monday and did not brake; police later found the vehicle with fresh damage. Sabàto’s father, actor Antonio Sabàto Jr., expressed condolences to Simmonds’s family in a statement and asked the public to respect his family’s privacy.
