A woman killed by a hit-and-run driver on Weld County Road 126 less than a mile west of State Highway 85 has been identified as Makahla L. Belew, 18, of Carr.

State Patrol Trooper Gilbert Mares said Belew was walking westbound on the county road when she was hit by an eastbound vehicle.

He said it’s believed she was near the center of the roadway when hit.

The driver of the vehicle apparently didn’t stop and assistance is requested from anyone who may have been traveling in the area of the accident last evening or early this morning. Anyone with information is asked to call 303-239-4501.
