Report: Police find van they believe was involved in Bernstein hit and run

Published August 2, 2019

LAFAYETTE, Colo. (BRAIN) — A Denver television station is reporting that police may have found the van involved in the hit-and-run collision that left industry veteran Andrew Bernstein in serious condition in the hospital.

The Denver Channel says a tipster called police Friday to say a van fitting the description was in Lafayette, a town adjacent to Boulder where the collision occurred. Police are in contact with the van's registered owner, the station said, but no charges have been filed.

Bernstein works at the industry marketing firm True Communications and is a former editor at Bicycling magazine. He was struck on July 20 while cycling on Arapahoe Road in Boulder. The driver that hit him drove off and Bernstein was discovered later by a passing motorist. Some broken vehicle parts were found at the scene and police released photos from security cameras this week that they believe showed the van involved.
