AURORA, Colo. — The suspect from a fatal hit-and-run in Parker was arrested days later in Aurora after an hours-long standoff.

On Monday around 8:30 p.m., a suspect in a white 2005 Chevy Monte Carlo drove away from a shoplifting incident at a Walmart, according to the Parker Police Department. An officer attempted to pull the driver over on S. Parker Road near Plaza Drive after hearing the report of shoplifting, but the driver did not stop, police said.

Shortly after attempting to stop the driver, the police department’s dispatch began receiving reports of a crash at S. Parker Road and Lincoln Avenue. Police determined that the shoplifting suspect had ran a red light and struck a pedestrian who was walking in a designated walkway at the intersection, police said.
