Detroit, MI (March 21, 2022) - A woman lost her life in a fatal hit-and-run pedestrian crash in Detroit on Sunday, March 20. At approximately 8:30 p.m., the woman was struck by a vehicle that reportedly drove toward a group of people.

Sources say the woman pushed a child out of the way before she was struck by the car on Manning at the intersection with Crusade. The fatal hit-and-run occurred on the front lawn of a home that was full of people watching others argue.

Two groups of people were in the yard fighting when a crowd gathered to watch. The woman was believed to be a part of the crowd.

The victim was transported to the hospital but succumbed to her injuries on Monday morning. Her identity has not been released at this time.

We would like to offer our sincere condolences to the family of the victim.
