AURORA, Colo. — A man was killed in a hit-and-run on Sunday, and a suspect vehicle description has been released by the Aurora Police Department (APD).

"Evidence on scene leads traffic investigators to believe the male was struck by a vehicle," APD said in a news release. 

During the investigation, parts of the vehicle were located at the scene. 

"Investigators have ruled out that the suspect vehicle is gray. After further examining the parts, investigators believe the suspect vehicle is a black 2005-2010 Dodge Charger or Dodge," APD said Wednesday.
