Indianapolis — A woman died after police say she was hit by a driver who fled the scene Sept. 18.

IMPD says officers were called to an area near the intersection of S. Lynhurst Dr. and W. Kelly St. around 8:30 p.m.

Investigators say 30-year-old Alexandra Leal was walking north on Lynhurst when she was hit by a vehicle. IMPD says the driver did not stop after the crash.

Leal was taken to the hospital where she was pronounced dead.

Investigators initially believed the vehicle involved was a blue Toyota sedan. On Sept. 24, IMPD updated the vehicle description to say it was a 2002-06 silver Toyota Camry traveling northbound on South Lynhurst Drive.

The vehicle will most likely have front-end damage.

Any information may be submitted to Crime Stoppers 317-262-TIPS (8477) or the IMPD Traffic Unit.
