Man killed by hit-and-run driver in Southern Jutland

He is believed to have been on a moped when the collision occurred.

Southern Jutland police received a call by a passerby last last evening about a person who was lying by the side of the road near the city of Toftlund.

When they arrived at the scene, they discovered a man who appeared to be the victim of a hit-and-run accident. He was pronounced dead on the spot.

A moped was found beside him, and police suspect he was on it when the collision occurred.

Police, who also found a white wing mirror at the scene, are now working with the theory that the car involved is white and missing a side mirror.

Holiday gone very wrong
Late last night, the police released an update that they had been approached by a couple shortly before 11pm who claimed they may have hit the man.

We have been approached by a couple who think they might have hit the man. They are tourists in the area,” police chief Erik Lindholdt Ritzau told DR.
