WEBER COUNTY, Utah -- Police are searching for a driver who hit and killed an elderly man late Friday night in West Haven.

According to the Weber County Sheriff's Office, the crash occurred around 10:45 p.m. near 4000 South and 4350 West, where construction is underway.
A vehicle passed a man who was walking on 4000 South, and the occupants of the car were concerned for the man because of the narrow shoulder of the road in the construction zone.
When they returned to the area, the occupants of that vehicle found the man lying just off the road. Deputies responded and found Green to be deceased.
