DENVER (CBS4) The suspicious driver in the New Year’s Eve’s hit-and-run death of 3-year-old Lyndreth Sage Antone appeared in court almost on Saturday.
Jordan Montiel-Vazquez appeared before a judge over video conferencing in Denver District Court after he was arrested Thursday on investigation into leaving the crash scene.
Police responded to the scene in South Lowell Boulevard and Morrison Road around 6:35 p.m., Thursday. Investigators said Montiel-Vazquez, 23, left the scene but was later arrested at a home in Aurora.
Montiel-Vazquez remains in custody, but the judge granted him a $ 10,000 personal recognition bond, which means he could be released from prison.
