A hit-and-run in Maplewood, Minnesota left a 65 year-old woman dead and now authorities need the public's help locating the SUV that was likely responsible.

 

The Minnesota State Patrol says that on Sunday, February 6, a 65-year-old Oakdale woman was walking on the southbound shoulder of Highway 120 in Maplewood when she was hit at around 7:43 p.m.

The woman was south of 5th Street when the hit-and-run occurred. She was then taken to Regions Hospital where was pronounced dead.

While the Minnesota State Patrol doesn't have a picture of the exact vehicle from the incident, they did reach out to ask for the public's help Monday and to share what they know thus far:

The suspect vehicle is a 2015-2020 silver Mitsubishi Outlander, similar to the one pictured, with front-end and driver’s side damage.
State Patrol dispatchers were able to track the vehicle leave the scene. It made its way South on Century, went westbound on I-94 then exited at Highway 61. Anyone with information is asked to call State Patrol investigators at 651-539-1151.
