DENVER — Police said they have located a car connected to a hit-and-run crash that seriously injured a pedestrian late Monday night, but no suspects have been arrested. 

According to a Medina Alert from the Colorado Bureau of Investigation, someone driving a stolen Acura sedan hit the pedestrian near 4th Avenue and North Broadway just after 9:30 p.m.

The pedestrian was taken to the hospital with serious injuries.

Denver Police said the car, which was reported stolen on Sunday, was last headed southbound on Broadway. 

Police said Tuesday evening that the car has been found and the Medina Alert canceled, but no suspects have been arrested.

MEDINA ALERTS 

Medina Alerts were signed into law on March 25, 2014 and went into effect on Dec. 30, 2014. They’re named for Jose Medina, a 21-year-old valet driver who was killed by a hit-and-run driver in 2011.  

Medina Alerts are issued following hit-and-run crashes where someone is seriously hurt or killed. Law enforcement also must have sufficient information about the suspect or the suspect’s vehicle, such as a license plate number and the vehicle’s make, style and color.
