Two men have been identified as “persons of interest” in a hit-and-run collision on Bloor St. W. Sunday evening that killed a Toronto mother of three.

Police are now asking for the public’s help in determining where Kebreab Ashame, 34, and Deriba Wakene, 55, were on Sunday and Monday.

Nelisa DaMota was walking across the street near Dovercourt Rd. at around 9 p.m. Sunday when she was hit by a westbound car. The collision threw her into the path of a second vehicle, which also hit her.

She was rushed to hospital, where she was pronounced dead.

The first vehicle fled the scene of the crash, while the second driver remained at the scene.

Toronto police Const. Clint Stibbe said investigators believe the first driver would have known they had hit something.

DaMota was a mother of three who worked as an administrator at Top Choice Realty Inc.

“She was a very kind person, good heart. She had a very good heart,” said Mahsa Dehghani, a receptionist at Top Choice who worked with DaMota. “I’m really going to miss her.”

The crash sparked a search for a white Mercedes. Police later received a call from the lawyer for the car’s registered owner, saying the vehicle was at 30 Dominion Rd., and that it was a white 1991 Mercedes Benz 420 SEL.

Investigators had asked for any business owners along Bloor St. with surveillance footage of such a vehicle to contact them.

Police reported Tuesday that they had found the Mercedes, and that it was now in their possession.
