SEATTLE — Troopers with the Washington State Patrol are trying to track down a driver who hit and killed a woman who was trying to cross the road.
It happened around 6:30 p.m. Wednesday on State Route 523/North 145th Street, near Stone Avenue North in North Seattle. The location is near State Route 99 and not far from Shoreline.
Troopers say a vehicle traveling eastbound in one of the lanes came to a stop to allow the pedestrian to cross. A black 2007 GMC Yukon SUV, which was in the other lane, did not. Troopers say the Yukon hit the 23-year-old and kept driving.
Troopers arrived to find the woman dead in the street.
WSP issued a Blue Alert for the Yukon with Washington license plate #BIS1792. It will have front-end damage from the crash.
WSP detectives are seeking any information that would lead to the location of the SUV and the person who was driving it.
If you see the Yukon, call 911 right away.
