Glendale police are searching for a suspect who killed a Phoenix pedestrian in a hit-and-run crash at 87th Avenue and Camelback Road in 2012.

The driver killed 23-year-old John Mangan while he was on foot sometime between 2 a.m. and 3 a.m. on Nov. 11.

According to a press release, investigators believe the vehicle is a possible 2000 or 2001 Dodge Dakota pickup truck. They also suspect that the vehicle will have noticeable damage to the front end.

Police said that people should pay attention to auto body shops in the Phoenix area because the driver may be repairing damage to the truck.
