Fatal hit-and-run in Denver's Central Park area leaves one person dead.

Early Sunday morning in Denver's Central Park neighborhood, a tragic hit-and-run crash took place, resulting in the loss of one person's life. According to the Denver Police Department, the incident occurred in the 11000 block of East Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard at 3:41 a.m. Initially, authorities reported it as a single-vehicle crash that was fatal.
