The photos of the car from outside the front of the driver\u2019s side show the car to be royal blue while the photos from the rear of the driver\u2019s side show a blue that\u2019s lighter than navy blue.<\/p>\n<p>The difference might be how the sun was hitting the car at about 12:25 p.m. Saturday. That\u2019s when the driver of the car, police say, fatally struck a 61-year-old man at the intersection of Northwest 17th Avenue and 43rd Street hard enough that the car should have front end damage.<\/p>\n<p>                                          <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"responsive-image\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Honda hit and run 3.png\"   width=\"1200\" height=\"679\" title=\"Honda hit and run 3.png\" alt=\"Miami police are looking for the driver of this Honda Accord after a Saturday afternoon hit-and-run death.\"\/>                                                                                    Miami police are looking for the driver of this Honda Accord after a Saturday afternoon hit-and-run death.
