Boulder police release new information on fatal hit-and-run accident
The accident happened in the northbound merge lane of Broadway, just north of Baseline, at about 6:30 p.m. on Saturday, March 5, 2011.
The Boulder County Coroner has identified the victim as Ronald L. Keithline (date of birth 01/31/1957). Keithline has had a number of interactions with Boulder police and has been known to lie in roadways in the past.
Witnesses who witnessed the collision say that, just prior to the accident, a red SUV stopped suddenly and swerved onto the sidewalk to go around something in the road. About 30 seconds later, they say they saw a dark-colored SUV hit Keithline. According to these witnesses, the SUV stopped for a moment, and then fled the scene.
Police are looking for a dark-colored Toyota Rav4 or Nissan Xterra-type vehicle.
Anyone with information about the accident is asked to call the Boulder Police Department’s Traffic Supervisor at 303-441-3333.
