Police say suspect intentionally hit victim in deadly hit-and-run in Westminster, Colorado

Police say a man was intentionally hit and was killed by a driver in a black Dodge Ram pickup truck in Westminster on Saturday night. Investigators are searching for the driver, who reportedly did not remain at the scene.  

In fact, the Colorado Bureau of Investigation issued a Medina Alert for the 2016 black Dodge Ram mid-afternoon Sunday. The truck's license plate is EEI-A89.

According to Westminster Police Department's social media post, police responded to the area of Alcott Street and Zuni Street just before 10:30 p.m. to the call for a victim hit by a vehicle. The man was found injured and taken to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead. 

A suspect in a black pickup truck left the scene before police arrived, and police says there was originally a confrontation between both the victim and the suspect before the victim was intentionally hit by the suspect in the truck. 

Further description of the Dodge pickup truck includes chrome wheels, a large circular sticker on the driver's back window, a pole sticking up from truck bed, a truck bed work box. 

Investigators are also searching for another person who might have witnessed the encounter between the victim and the suspect, and this person might be driving an older 2-door car, with possible white or tan paint, lowered with aftermarket rims. 

The victim had not been identified at the time of the social media post, pending confirmation with the coroner's office.
