Lexington police are searching for hit-and-run suspects who struck a pedestrian on North Limestone earlier this month, then watched the scene until police arrived.
John V. Oliver, 47, died at University of Kentucky Chandler Hospital after being hit Oct. 20 while standing next to his bicycle at North Limestone and Templeman Alley.
Surveillance video obtained by police shows the suspects were driving a silver/gray 2004-2009 Kia Spectra, police said. After striking Oliver at around 2 a.m., the vehicle pulled onto Academy Alley a couple blocks up, according to police.
“A male and a female got out of the vehicle and walked back to the scene, where they remained until police arrived,” according to a release from police.
The man and woman are both thin and the woman’s hair was in dreadlocks, according to police.
