Forensic crash unit officers have charged a man with dangerous driving causing death in relation to an August 2019 fatal hit and run crash in The Range.
It will be alleged the man was the driver of a 2005 purple Ford Falcon that hit a pedestrian on Archer Street around 8:20pm on August 17.
The vehicle failed to stop and was located the following day in Harvey Street in Port Curtis.
The pedestrian, a 76-year-old Depot Hill man, died on August 18.
A member of the public contacted police in May of this year which lead to the charging of a man yesterday.
A 37-year-old Etna Creek man has been charged with one count of dangerous driving causing death and will appear in the Rockhampton Magistrates Court on August 2.
