Woodland Hills: Detectives from the Los Angeles Police Department’s Valley Traffic Division are seeking the public’s help to identify the driver responsible for a hit-and-run traffic collision that left a 76-year-old woman severely injured.

The driver failed to stop, identify themselves, and/or render aid to the injured person, and fled the scene in an unknown direction.

Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics responded and transported the severely injured pedestrian to a local hospital for medical treatment.

The suspect vehicle is described as a dark colored sedan, possibly a 2010-2013 Honda Civic.
