The victim of a hit-and-run in Vancouver last week has died.
On Wednesday, police began investigating after the driver of a white GMC Yukon struck the victim, a 68-year-old man, who was crossing the intersection of Oak Street and West 6th Avenue around 9:15 a.m.
“The driver did not remain at the scene,” said a VPD statement Friday.
