The Dallas County Sheriff’s Office is seeking the public’s assistance following a hit-and-run accident that left an unidentified woman dead on the interstate. The grisly discovery was made in the early hours of Monday, March 11, when deputies were called to the scene of the accident on eastbound I-30 at the I-45 interchange.
