OGDEN — Police on Thursday named the man who died in a hit-and-run crash earlier in the week and also arrested a suspect.
The man was found unconscious Wednesday about 5 p.m. in a parking lot near 7th Street and Washington Avenue, a press release from the Ogden Police Department says.
The man, 63-year-old Stirling Kelso, had been "cleaning the parking lot of a nearby carwash when he was struck by a vehicle," according to the release. Kelso was pronounced dead at the scene.
Ogden police say they arrested 21-year-old Christian Hernandez Palma for investigation of being the driver in the hit and run, driving without a license and failure to maintain a safe and proper lookout.
No information has been released about how police identified Palma as a suspect and, as of Thursday afternoon, no booking affidavit or charging documents have been filed.
