Kent Police are trying to find a vehicle and driver involved in an apparent hit-and-run Saturday night on the West Hill that seriously injured a 51-year-old woman.<\/p>\n

Officers responded at about 9:40 p.m. to the 23600 block of Pacific Highway South<\/a> for a report of an unconscious woman laying in the northbound lanes of traffic in the middle of the road, according to an email from Kent Police spokeswoman Melanie Robinson.<\/p>\n

Witnesses that found the woman believed that she may have been hit by a vehicle or thrown from a vehicle that fled from the scene, but were not sure, Robinson said. Paramedics transported the woman to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle where it was determined she had significant internal injuries. The woman is believed to be from Pacific, according to the police report.<\/p>\n

Traffic investigators researched pieces of vehicle parts from a possible suspect vehicle that were located at the scene. It was determined that the vehicle parts are for a front grill assembly of a 2008 to 2014 Mercedes-Benz C-Class sedan. The part itself appeared to have factory silver paint with chrome accents, indicating that the vehicle is silver in color.<\/p>\n

Traffic investigators are looking for additional witnesses and searching the area for surveillance video.<\/p>\n

Kent Police are asking anyone with information to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or the Kent Police tip line at 253-856-5808.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
