CHERRY HILLS VILLAGE, Colo. — The Cherry Hills Village Police Department is trying to identify a person of interest in a fatal crash that occurred July 26.
Police said the crash happened along the 4000 block of S. University Boulevard around 6:34 p.m.
Stacy L. Pepper, 37, was killed. She was originally from Colorado but most recently lived in San Francisco and was in town visiting family, according to her family.
She was struck by a truck that was reported stolen out of Jefferson County, police said. The suspect and truck were both associated with a burglary in Arapahoe County.

It brought her great joy to share her experiences with friends and family, and document her world travels through perfectly crafted photo memory books."
