Woman, 32, fatally struck by hit-and-run driver while crossing NYC street: cops

A 32-year-old woman was fatally struck by a hit-and-run driver as she crossed a Bronx street early Tuesday, cops said.

Dilmania Lopez de Rodriguez was struck just after midnight as she tried to cross Bruckner Boulevard at the Leggett Avenue intersection in Mott Haven, within the crosswalk, police said. 

The motorist struck the woman while driving north on Bruckner Boulevard in the right lane, authorities said.

Another person driving nearby found Lopez de Rodriguez unconscious and unresponsive in the roadway and called 911, sources said. 

Lopez de Rodriguez, who lived less than a mile from the scene, was rushed by EMS to Lincoln Medical Center, where she succumbed to her injuries, police said.

The driver fled the scene and had not been caught by Tuesday afternoon. 

Descriptions of the fleeing driver and the car were not immediately available.
