Here are the top stories today in Denver:

1. Denver cyclist searching for the driver that fled the scene. Jim Hamilton was hit by a car last Tuesday near East 16th Avenue and Syracuse Street while riding his bicycle. The driver fled the scene, leaving Hamilton laying in the street with serious injuries. Now, Jim and his friends are working to track down the vehicle's driver that left the scene. (FOX31)
2. Video released as DPS students battle district over trademarked podcast. Denver Public School District made the rare move to trademark a group of DPS students' podcast, and now a revealing video has been released. (Chalk Beat)
3. East Colfax making plans to become a cultural district. The Fax Partnership has received a grant of $150,000 from the City of Denver's Community Development Block Grant Program, as part of an effort to highlight all of the good things the area has to offer. A cultural district designation would help pay for improvements and would encourage more people to visit East Colfax businesses. (Westword)
4. Warmer temperatures this week, until a mid-week cold front shows up. Warm mid-October weather is in the forecast for the next few days, with slightly warmer-than-normal temperatures thru at least Tuesday. (CBS4)
