A pedestrian died Thursday night after being struck by a vehicle in a hit-and-run near downtown Fresno.<\/p>\n

Fresno Police Lt. Justin Hoagland said an officer was flagged down by a witness who said she saw a vehicle hit the woman just before 9 p.m. at Ventura and F Streets.<\/p>\n

The officer had just exited Highway 99 to get onto Ventura after the witness told the cop what happened and found the woman in the No. 1 lane on westbound Ventura.<\/p>\n

Hoagland said the woman was suffering from serious trauma. Officers provided care before EMS took her to Community Regional Medical Center, where she died.<\/p>\n

Hoagland said the witness described the alleged vehicle as a large, dark-colored SUV, possibly black or brown.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey made no attempt to stop after striking the pedestrian as she was crossing the roadway,\u201d Hoagland said.<\/p>\n

Anyone with information is asked to call the police at 559-621-7000<\/a>.<\/p>\n
