(PALMDALE, January 2020) — A woman was walking her dog on the 7600 block of Pearblossom Highway when she was struck by a driver of a Ford Explorer on Thursday night. The driver did not stop and render aid — the woman died of her injuries.
The driver of the Ford then continued driving down the freeway toward Palmdale, when he then was involved in a car accident on 25th Street East and East Avenue South. Eight people were injured in the second accident.
The suspect was arrested following the second accident.
