A man was killed in an apparent hit-and-run Wednesday night in Brighton Heights, according to Pittsburgh police.
Lawrence Soeder, 58, of West View, was found lying in the street at the intersection of Davis and Massachusetts avenues around 10:45 p.m. Police said he had significant head trauma and they believe he was on foot when he was hit by a vehicle.
Police said there was not a vehicle at the scene, which is in a residential area not far from Ohio River Boulevard and the McKees Rocks Bridge. Later Thursday, authorities released a photo of a suspect vehicle that they described as a dark-colored Kia Soul.
Soeder was taken by Pittsburgh EMS to Allegheny General Hospital where he died, according to the Allegheny County Medical Examiner. Anyone with information is asked to call police at 412-432-4776.
