The accident occurred on the 7700 block of Roosevelt Blvd. at 2:26 a.m. The victim stepped from the east side of the highway into the northbound lanes and was struck by an unknown vehicle driven by an unidentified motorist, who fled the scene before police arrived.

The victim was pronounced dead at the scene.

Police have no description of the vehicle, which likely has driver’s side damage and a missing exterior mirror, Russell said. ••
