AUSTIN, Texas — The San Marcos Police Department is searching for a driver connected with a hit-and-run that killed a 69-year-old man from Nixon, Texas.
According to police, 69-year-old Lenard Green Coleman was hit by two vehicles in the 1100 block of State Highway 123 just before 1 a.m. on June 14. Police say he later died at the scene.
An investigation showed that a delivery truck was the first vehicle to hit Coleman without stopping. Police identified the delivery truck driver but haven't released an identity because charges have not been filed yet.

The driver of the SUV didn't stop. Police believe the driver lives in a neighborhood close to where the incident happened.
