Man dies after being hit by car, DC police continue searching for the driver

WASHINGTON — Police are asking for the public's help identifying a driver they say was involved in a deadly hit and run. 

According to the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD), officers were called to the 1700 block of New York Avenue just before 8:30 p.m. on Nov. 6. 

When officers arrived, they learned a bright green Dodge Challenger hit a pedestrian as they were walking across the street. The car took off after hitting the man.

The man was in critical condition when first responders took him to an area hospital. More than four months later, he died from his injuries.

Police have since identified the victim as 38-year-old Brandon Johnson.

MPD released a video of the driver and the car believed to be connected to Johnson's death. 

The crash happened on Feb. 8 in East Baltimore. The crash killed a pedestrian and buried two cars in bricks from a collapsing building after the crash. Click here to watch and subscribe to the WUSA9 YouTube channel.
