A bail hearing for Scott Quick has begun in a Windsor courtroom.  

Quick, 48, was charged with first degree murder on March 12 by provincial police.

His estranged wife Nancy Quick was struck down in broad daylight by a hit and run driver in Tecumseh in 2006.

She died five days later in a Detroit hospital from critical injuries.

The vehicle, which was stolen, was recovered on IC Roy drive where a witness saw a man exiting a vehicle.

Three days have been set aside for the proceedings.

A publication ban is in effect.
