AURORA, Colo. — A driver suspected in a deadly hit-and-run overnight is wanted by police, and Aurora officers are asking for your help to find the culprit.

Police responded to the area of Yosemite St. and E. Colfax Ave. at around 1:20 a.m. Monday on a report of a man down on the roadway.

The victim – only identified as a man by police – was taken to a hospital where he later died from his injuries. Investigators believe he may have been a victim of a hit-and-run crash, according to a news release from the Aurora Police Department.
