A 21-year-old man has died after a hit-and-run in Montreal's Centre-Sud neighbourhood Sunday evening.

He was initially brought to the hospital in what police described as a "critical state" but succumbed to his injuries late Monday morning, SPVM spokesperson Jeanne Drouin told the media.

Investigators are said to have found a suspicious vehicle near the intersection of rues Sicard and Notre-Dame in the borough of Mercier–Hochelaga-Maisonneuve, but police have not yet confirmed if they believe the vehicle was involved in the hit-and-run.

The SPVM also has not yet identified a suspect.

The investigation is ongoing.
