A pedestrian was gravely injured Thursday in a hit-and- run on a Ridgeview/Webster-area street.
The 57-year-old woman was crossing Federal Boulevard to the north at Euclid Avenue in a marked crosswalk when a vehicle struck her shortly after 6 a.m. Thursday, according to the San Diego Police Department.
Following the impact, the motorist continued driving and left the area, SDPD Officer David O’Brien said.
Paramedics took the victim to a trauma center for treatment of life- threatening injuries, including a brain bleed and a pelvic fracture.
“At this time, there is no description of the (involved) vehicle or driver available,” O’Brien said in the late morning.
