Police: Man Found On Street Killed In Apparent Hit-And-Run

Las Vegas police say a man found dead on a street near an intersection is an apparent hit-and-run victim, not a gunshot victim as initially suspected.

 

Police say the 57-year-old man apparently was struck and dragged by a vehicle Wednesday night. Police say homicide detectives began investigating the death because it appeared he'd been shot.

But police say an injury initially thought to be a gunshot wound actually resulted from being struck. No description of a suspected hit-and-run vehicle is available and the victim's identity wasn't released.
