Howard County authorities are currently piecing together the events of a hit-and-run in Elkridge that left one woman dead. Late on the evening of September 6, a southbound vehicle struck the pedestrian as she crossed the 6200 block of Washington Boulevard, and a second vehicle heading north hit her again. Tragically, neither driver stopped to provide assistance or contact authorities, leaving the victim to be pronounced dead on the scene, as reported by Howard County Police.

Police are urging anyone who might quickly come forward with information to aid their investigation, which remains actively underway. The section of Washington Boulevard where the incident occurred was closed for around four hours to allow for preliminary evidence gathering. According to a statement on the Howard County Government website, PFC White at the Howard County Police Department is the point of contact for tips, reachable at 410-313-6220.

The woman's identity has yet to be released, pending notification of her next of kin. As the investigation continues, full details about the makes and models of the involved vehicles have not been disclosed.
