FRANKENMUTH, MI -- A Frankenmuth woman was killed Tuesday morning, Aug. 30, in a hit-and-run crash as she walked or jogged on Dehmel Road. Police are seeking tips from the public.

Officials with the Frankenmuth Police Department responded about 6:45 a.m. Tuesday, Aug. 30, to a report of a woman down on Dehmel between Tuscola and Curtis roads. Responders pronounced her dead at the scene, according to a Frankenmuth Police Department news release.

The 49-year-old Frankenmuth woman had signs of severe trauma and her injuries indicated she had been struck by a motor vehicle, the release states.

Police are withholding the victim's name pending notification of her family.

The initial investigation indicates the woman was jogging or walking on the east side of Dehmel when she was struck by a motor vehicle traveling north, the release states. The vehicle then continued north on Dehmel.

It's unclear exactly when she was hit.

Evidence collected at the scene suggests the pedestrian may have been hit by a white vehicle with a high profile. Police also found pieces of a gray after-market headlight cover, which they believe may have come from the vehicle.

Police expect the vehicle would have sustained damage to its front passenger side and possibly its hood.

Evidence collected at the scene will be given to the Michigan State Police Crime Laboratory Tuesday for analysis.

Police plan to check for the existence of any surveillance footage that may assist in their investigation. Anyone who has surveillance footage that may be of use, including residential surveillance footage, is asked to contact Frankenmuth police.

Frankenmuth police were assisted by Michigan State Police and members of the Saginaw County Accident Investigation Team consisting of Saginaw County Sheriff's Office, Birch Run Police Department, Bridgeport Township Police Department and Mobile Medical Response.

Anyone who has any information pertaining to this case is asked to call Frankenmuth Police Department Detective Randy Flathau at 989-652-3430, extension 161.
