Teenager Seriously Injured in Arvada Hit and Run Accident

Hit and run crashes in the Denver area are on the rise. In fact, over the last six years, hit and run accidents have increased by nearly 70% in Denver and surrounding areas. One of those areas is Arvada, Colorado.

In June 2019, a black sedan driver hit a young 14-year-old boy at the intersection of 64th Avenue and Sheridan Boulevard in Arvada. The young boy was rushed to the hospital with life-threatening injuries. According to recent reports, investigators had not officially determined who had the right-of-way at the time of the accident. However, preliminary investigations showed that the boy was using the crosswalk at the time of the crash. Here’s the story of a teenager seriously injured in Arvada hit and run accident. 

No matter who was to blame for the accident, investigators say that leaving the scene of an accident is a crime and it is inexcusable. When drivers fail to stop, injured pedestrians don’t receive the emergency medical attention they need as quickly. This can result in serious complications and even fatalities. 

According to CBS news, the boy is expected to survive his injuries, but police are asking the public to help them catch the hit and run driver. If you have information about the crash, contact the Arvada police department immediately. 

Obtaining Compensation after a Hit and Run Accident in Arvada

If you are involved in a hit and run accident and injured, you may face a long uphill battle trying to collect the compensation you need to put your life back together. Unless the at-fault driver is found, you will have to turn to your own insurance company to receive money for medical expenses and lost wages. In order to do this, you must have already purchased an Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM) insurance policy. 

However, collecting compensation from your own insurance company isn’t always easy after a hit and run accident. That’s why injured Arvada accident victims need an experienced and skilled law firm on their side from the very start. Your attorney will be on your side throughout this difficult process. While you are focusing on your recovery, and the police are focused on catching the hit and run driver, your Arvada lawyer will be looking out for you and your future.
