DENVER — A 28-year-old man is being held on suspicion of second-degree murder after he allegedly caused another man's death early Monday morning in southeast Denver.
Denver Police said they were called to the 1800 block of South Quebec Way just after 2:30 a.m. for a report of an auto versus pedestrian crash.
When officers arrived, they found Jeremy Lewis and the victim, police said. Lewis was driving the vehicle involved, according to police. The victim was declared dead at the scene.
Police said Lewis and the victim knew one another and had gotten into an argument. The victim tried to get into Lewis' vehicle as he was driving away, police said.

Lewis was being held in the Denver Detention Center under $50,000 bond, according to jail records.
