LEON VALLEY, Texas – Leon Valley police said officers are looking for a driver accused of striking and killing a pedestrian Saturday morning.
In a statement to KSAT, Leon Valley Police Chief David Gonzalez said officers responded to a crash call just before 8:30 a.m. in the 5600 block of Grissom Road near Timberhill Drive.
When officers and other first responders arrived, Gonzalez said they found a woman in her 30s. She was pronounced dead at the scene, the chief said.
Authorities said the driver of the vehicle fled the scene and later deserted the vehicle, which police found near the crash.
