Woman killed in hit-run collision at Hillcrest

At 11pm on Tuesday 6 May, a young woman was hit by a car on North East Road, Hillcrest.  A patrol came across the woman lying on the road and performed CPR.

Sadly, there was nothing police or paramedics could do, and the 20-year-old woman from Greenacres was pronounced deceased a short time later.

Major Crash investigators attended and examined the scene overnight.  The crash occurred on the north-east bound carriageway of North East Road, near Forbes Street, near the service station.

Investigators have spoken to witnesses who described seeing a silver sedan with alloy wheels and front driving lights involved in the crash, but it did not stop at the scene.

The driver of the car is urged to come forward.

Anyone with information about this silver sedan (pictured below) which possibly has front end damage, or the driver is asked to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or online at www.crimestopperssa.com.au

Police are appealing for any witnesses or other motorists with dashcam footage, including of the woman's presence on the roadway before the fatal crash, to contact police.  Police are also seeking any CCTV footage from the area.

The young woman is the 29th life lost on South Australian roads so far this year.
