The Denton Police Department is requesting the public’s help in identifying the driver of a vehicle that fled after striking a pedestrian on W. University Drive.

At 12:38 a.m. Monday, Sept. 22, officers responded to an unconscious person call in the 1900 block of W. University Drive, east of Ector Street. Arriving officers determined that a vehicle had struck a pedestrian in the right lane of eastbound W. University.

The male pedestrian was transported to a hospital, where he was pronounced deceased. The Tarrant County Medical Examiner’s Office will release his identity after next of kin is notified.

Traffic investigators are actively working to determine the make and model of the suspect vehicle, which witnesses described as a silver/light gray four-door sedan. The vehicle likely sustained front-end damage. Witnesses also reported that the male driver initially stopped then fled after being told he had struck a pedestrian.

The investigation is ongoing. Anyone with information should email [email protected] or call 940-349-8181 and ask to speak with a Traffic Unit officer.
