AURORA | Aurora police say they’ve arrested a man suspected of fatally hitting a woman Sunday with his car on an I-225 on-ramp in Aurora and then leaving the scene of the crash.

Police said, “27-year-old Johandry De Los Santos Ruiz of Venezuela turned himself into police.”

Officers were called to the area of westbound East Colfax Avenue and the I-225 on-ramp at about 10 p.m. Sunday after reports of a hit-and-run crash.

“When officers arrived at the scene, they located a woman who was deceased upon arrival,” Aurora police spokesperson Joe Moylan said in a statement.

It was unclear whether an investigation pointed to Ruiz before he turned himself in.

The identity of the woman has not yet been released by coroner officials.
