The driver of a black sports utility vehicle involved in a hit-and-run near Aloha Tower Marketplace which left a pedestrian critically injured surrendered to police last night.

The man, 25, from the Mo'ili'ili area, was accompanied by his attorney, police said. He was arrested for felony failure to render aid by vehicular homicide investigators and later released pending further investigation. Additional charges are pending the condition of the injured male pedestrian, 39, who is hospitalized at The Queen's Medical Center.

The suspect vehicle is a Chevy sports utility vehicle, not a Cadillac Escalade as previously reported, investigators said.

Vehicular homicide investigator Sgt. John Agno said the pedestrian was walking on the sidewalk on South Nimitz Highway, 109 feet south of Fort Street, at 2:07 a.m. yesterday when he was struck by the south-bound SUV, which moved into the right lane and jumped the curb. Witnesses told police the driver stopped briefly before driving off toward Waikiki.

Police, meanwhile, are still looking for the driver of a light-colored SUV that fled the scene of a fatal hit-and-run Wednesday on Dillingham Boulevard which killed a 79-year-old pedestrian. The SUV had paper license plates, which indicate it is a new vehicle.
