A 15-year-old bicyclist suffered serious injuries Sunday afternoon after a vehicle struck the juvenile near South Pierce Court and West Portland Avenue in Littleton and fled the scene, and the Colorado State Patrol is asking the public for information that could help identify the driver.

The crash was reported at about 3:45 p.m. on Sunday, April 19, 2026, according to the Colorado State Patrol. Troopers said it was the second hit-and-run crash of the weekend to injure a teenager.

Witnesses described the vehicle as a late-model, large, dark-colored SUV. The driver was described as a Hispanic woman with dark, wavy hair, possibly in her 40s, and wearing a purple shirt. A Hispanic teenage passenger with dark hair was also in the vehicle.

The Colorado State Patrol is the lead investigating agency in the case. No suspect has been identified or charged.

Anyone who was traveling through the area or who has information about the crash is asked to contact the Colorado State Patrol Denver Dispatch Center at 303-239-4501 and reference case number 1A261135.
