A Delaware man is accused of running over a woman jogger, killing her, while he was driving to work at the JP Morgan Chase offices Monday morning, Westerville police say.

The body of Linda J. Evans, 68, of Columbus, was discovered at 9:47 a.m. by a passing motorist who was driving in the 700 block of Park Meadow Road. The driver called police after she thought she saw a body. Police believe that Evans was out jogging.

Jonathan B. Coffman, 32, was charged Monday night with aggravated vehicular homicide, a second degree felony. He is being held in the Franklin County jail.

Authorities believe Coffman struck the jogger around 8:40 a.m. because a witness told police they saw a man matching Coffman's description walking around his vehicle and inspecting it on Park Meadow Road near where the body was found around that time, court records show.

A Westerville police officer discovered Coffman sitting in his vehicle in the western parking lot of JP Morgan Chase in the 800 block of Brooksedge Boulevard, around 11:42 a.m., records show. Coffman works at the corporate office of JP Morgan Chase which is several hundred yards from where Evans' body was found.

Blood was found on the front and right side of Coffman's gray 2002 Ford Explorer. Debris found near Evans' body appears to match the damage on Coffman's vehicle, authorities said in court records.

When he was interviewed by police, Coffman admitted that he had run off the road Monday morning.

Coffman told police that he had taken the drug Seroquel, which is used to treat a bi-polar disorder. He said he had taken the drug at a later time than normal and was feeling sleepy and impaired because of that, court records show.

The Bureau of Criminal Investigation's crime scene unit assisted at the crash site. Detectives obtained a search warrant for the vehicle, as well as a blood draw for Coffman.

Anyone with information about Evans' death is encouraged to call 614-901-6866.
