Vigil held for woman killed in hit-and-run in Aurora

AURORA, Colo. — Thursday was a sad and somber night in Aurora for one group.

On the day many of them had heard a  suspected drunk driver had been caught, friends and family gathered at a park to remember Jana Phillips.

The 26-year-old was hit and killed while walking along East Iliff Avenue over the weekend.

Aurora police have since announced a 37-year-old man has been arrested in connection with the crime.

A GoFundMe account has been established for Phillips.
