The Houston Police Department said the case is being investigated as a failure to stop and render aid. Investigators believe the first vehicle, described by a witness as a white vehicle, struck the pedestrian and fled the scene.
A second driver then hit the pedestrian and drove over her, police said. That driver later returned, realized it was a person, stopped, turned on hazard lights and waited for officers. Police said there were no signs of intoxication.
The pedestrian was described as white or Hispanic woman and has not been identified. She was pronounced dead at the scene by the Houston Fire Department. Investigators said it’s not clear whether she was a tourist or traveling through the area.
