25-year-old woman crossing 103rd Street killed in hit-and-run; driver possibly identified: FHP<\/a><\/p>\nPrevious coverage can also be seen in the video player below<\/p>\n
Wright walks to and from work, and tells News4JAX that she was shocked by the news that a woman was killed after being hit by a car Monday night.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think drivers should be more cautious and also pedestrians should be more cautious,\u201d she said. \u201cAnd I believe that we should have more pedestrian lanes and a lot more walk areas and sidewalks.\u201d <\/p>\n
The Florida Highway Patrol said a green 2010 Chevrolet Camaro struck the woman and fled the scene, leaving traffic blocked for hours while investigators worked in the area.<\/p>\n
FHP added that they located a possible suspect and vehicle, with later reports from the agency listing the driver as a 68-year-old man from Jacksonville.<\/p>\n
One resident named Kendale Ashley said the crash has made him fearful about bringing children outside.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t even want to come outside no more,\u201d Ashley said. \u201cI\u2019m afraid to bring my kid outside.\u201d<\/p>\n
News4JAX has contacted the Florida Highway Patrol for more information about the investigation and is still waiting to hear back.<\/p>\n
Anyone with information about the crash is asked to contact the agency. <\/p>\n
