Marci Cruz, 25, died this morning after being hit by a car outside 284 Washington St. in Chelsea about 10:15 p.m. last night, Chelsea Police and the Suffolk County District Attorney's office report.

Based on evidence developed through the day by Chelsea and State police investigators, the vehicle involved in last night's fatal hit-and-run is believed to be a 2007-2009 Toyota Camry SE, silver or light gray in color. Unlike most standard Camrys, this vehicle has a moon roof and fog lights. The vehicle is expected to have a broken driver's side headlight and fog light. As the investigation proceeds and detectives provide this information to regional police departments, authorities are asking area auto body shops to be on the lookout for such a vehicle being brought in for repairs of this nature.

Anyone who has information on the crash, the driver, or a similar vehicle with recent, unexplained damage is asked to contact the Suffolk County State Police Detective Unit at 617-727-8817 or Chelsea Police Detectives at 617-466-4805.
