The Tigard Police Department is investigating a deadly hit and run crash that left one woman dead and another hurt.
On Friday, March 4th at 8:40 PM officers responded to the scene at SW Hall Blvd. and SW Lucille Court. Investigators believe two pedestrians, an adult mother and daughter, were crossing SW Hall Blvd. when they were hit by a driver who left the scene.
The daughter, a 57-year-old woman, was pronounced dead at the scene. Her 86-year-old mother was taken to the hospital with serious injuries. Their names are not being released at this time.
Investigators believe the suspect vehicle is a darker colored 2015-2016 Jeep Renegade. It will have significant front-end damage. If you have information that may help in the investigation, please call the non-emergency dispatch number at 503-629-0111 and ask to speak to a Tigard officer.
