DENVER — A man involved in a deadly hit-and-run accident in February was arrest by the Denver Police Department Tuesday.

Paul Estrada Jr., 62, is being charged with a class 3 felony for striking James Garcia, 32, with his vehicle at the intersection of West Colfax Ave. and North Sheridan Blvd on Feb. 20. Garcia died from his injuries.

Estrada’s vehicle was recovered and processed several months ago.

This is the third of four unsolved fatal hit-and-run investigations the DPD has closed.

Investigators are asking anyone with information regarding this case to call 720-913-STOP.
