Vancouver police have made an arrest in connection with a hit and run that killed a 66-year-old woman this weekend.
Investigators with the Vancouver Police Department believe the woman was walking near East Broadway and Commercial Drive around 10:20 p.m. on Oct. 30 when she was struck by a silver Acura TL, which then fled east without stopping. The victim died at hospital.
Investigators later located the suspected hit-and-run vehicle near Clark Drive and Powell Street, and arrested a 30-year-old man from Surrey according to a recent VPD release. Speed and alcohol are potential factors.
Anyone who witnessed the collision, or saw the silver 2005 Acura TL around the time of the collision, is asked to call VPD’s Collision Investigation Unit at 604-717-3012.
