A man has died after he was hit and killed by one of his associates in Phoenix.
On Sunday night, Phoenix police responded to a crash in the area of 91st Avenue and Lower Buckeye Road.
When officers arrived on the scene, they found the victim, 21-year-old Gabriel Morales with critical injuries in a greenbelt area of the neighborhood.
