A tragic incident unfolded in Comstock Township Sunday night, as a 55-year-old woman lost her life after being struck by a vehicle, according to multiple reports from local news outlets. WOODTV stated that the Kalamazoo County Sheriff’s Office responded to an emergency call around 10:05 p.m., finding the woman had been hit along Gull Road, near Eastland Drive; she was transported to the hospital where she was later pronounced dead, her identity not yet disclosed to the public.
The scene of the collision sits within a stretch that has now been etched with the sorrow of a sudden loss, the driver who was involved stopped after the incident and, at this point, no arrests have been made, the sheriff's office informed WOODTV, while the crash continues to be under the microscope as deputies work through the particulars of the case.
Moreover, further details are sparse, as News Channel 3 reports that the Kalamazoo County Sheriff's Office is currently relentless in its pursuit of answers; they have yet to release additional information pertaining to the circumstances that led to this fatal encounter at the cross streets of Gull Road and Rockingham Avenue.
Those concerned will have to wait for the results of the ongoing investigation, as the Kalamazoo County Sheriff’s Office is staying quiet due to the sensitive and complex nature of the case. Part of the delay involves notifying the victim’s family and carefully reviewing the details. Help from Comstock Township firefighters, Life EMS, and state police has been confirmed by MLive. The impact of the loss continues to be felt, even after the emergency response has ended.
