A hit-and-run crash on a Broward County roadway left one person dead Wednesday morning, officials said.

Broward Sheriff’s Office officials said deputies arrived at the scene located on State Road 7 south of Davie Boulevard just before 6 a.m., finding one person dead at the scene.

"I feel sad for this person," said Gustavo Sanchez, who lives near the scene. "Maybe somebody’s waiting...for this person to come back home and (they're) not going to come back."

Homicide investigators have not released additional information, including the victim’s identity, but confirmed they are investigating the incident as a hit-and-run crash.

Hours after the crash, investigators took pictures of a black Chevrolet Equinox that came back to the scene with damage to the passenger side bumper before letting the driver leave.

Northbound lanes of State Road 7 remained closed as the investigation continues.
