The Kamloops RCMP has identified the person who they believe killed a man in a hit-and-run last October.
However, police say the suspect is a senior who has since died, and as such, they’re closing the case.
According to Mounties, the crash happened on Oct. 20, 2018, around 1:30 a.m. on Seymour Street West, leaving a 48-year-old man dead.

Investigators used surveillance video to identify a suspect vehicle the following month, and a DNA test linked it to the hit-and-run.
The RCMP says evidence suggests the 75-year-old owner of the vehicle was behind the wheel at the time.
