One person died and four others were injured in hit-and-run crashes across Denver between Saturday and Monday, according to the police department.
A bicyclist was hit in the 4800 block of West 14th Avenue, near Yates Street, at about 1:34 a.m. Saturday. Police announced Monday that the unidentified victim had died at the hospital.
Investigators are searching for a larger, dark-colored sport utility vehicle, according to a crime alert. The vehicle may have damage to the front bumper and undercarriage.
Two people were hit on a scooter less than an hour after, at about 2:12 a.m. Saturday, police said. Both were taken to the hospital with serious injuries.
That crash happened near the intersection of 18th Street and Welton Street, and a Nissan Murano SUV was spotted fleeing the scene, according to a crime alert.
No hit-and-run crashes were reported Sunday, but two more people were injured on Labor Day in Denver.
A bicyclist was injured in a hit-and-run near 40th and Walnut streets Monday evening, according to a 7:26 p.m. post from the Denver Police Department. Paramedics took the bicyclist to the hospital with serious injuries.
Another person was injured earlier that morning in a hit-and-run that temporarily shut down northbound Federal Boulevard at Sixth Avenue, police said at 5:04 a.m. Monday.
Police said the unknown driver fled the scene on foot after hitting an unidentified motorist, but it’s unclear if the driver was found or arrested.
