Gwinnett County police are looking for a late model Dodge Ram van that is implicated in a pedestrian hit and run fatality that happened in unincorporated Lawrenceville last night.

According to a press release, the accident happened at about 11:37 p.m. last night on Sugarloaf Parkway in between Cruse Road and State Route 316.

“The preliminary investigation revealed that 25-year-old Thiago Campos of Suwanee was attempting to cross Sugarloaf Parkway outside of a crosswalk,” Gwinnett County Police Department public information officer Cpl. Edwin Ritter said in the press release. “Vehicle 2 was traveling westbound toward SR 316 on Sugarloaf Parkway and struck Mr. Campos. The driver of Vehicle 2 did not stop after striking Mr. Campos and left the scene. Mr. Campos died on scene and a result of the injuries sustained from the collision.”

Ritter said investigators made the assumption that the vehicle is a late model Dodge Ram van based on the debris left at the scene.

“At this time the color of the vehicle has not been determined nor do they have a description of the driver. It is believed the vehicle will have damage to the front passenger side of the vehicle,” Ritter said. 

Anyone with information regarding this accident is urged to call the Gwinnett County Police Department at 770-338-7430 ext. 5670.
