Police were looking Thursday for a hit-and-run driver who fatally struck a pedestrian in St. Paul.
Officers responded to St. Anthony Avenue and Aldine Street, near Interstate 94 and University Avenue, about 5:15 p.m. on reports of a crash.
The pedestrian was found with head trauma, and officers began rendering aid until St. Paul Fire Department medics took over, said Nikki Muehlhausen, a St. Paul police spokesperson. Medics took the woman to Regions Hospital, where she was pronounced dead a short time later.
Witnesses reported the vehicle that struck the woman was a dark-colored sport-utility vehicle. Additional information wasn’t immediately available.
“There is an active search underway for the driver/vehicle, which fled the scene before officers arrived,” Muehlhausen said Thursday night.
