Police Ask For Help Locating Woman Who Struck People With SUV
Tyler police are looking for a woman they say struck three people with her vehicle as she fled the scene of a fight this morning.
According to police, officers were dispatched to the 2100 block of North Grand Avenue about 2:30 a.m. where a large fight was underway and several people had been injured.
“Upon officers’ arrival, they located one female victim laying in the street. One witness was on scene and all other persons had fled,” a press release stated.
Police said the lone witness advised that several black females were fighting inside a building owned by a local motorcycle club and the fight eventually moved to the parking lot.
It was then a black female, approximately 25 years old and wearing a pink shirt and blue jean shorts, got into a tan or grey Ford SUV.
“The witness advised the female fled the parking lot only to turn around and come back running over three people in the process,” police said.
Two male victims were taken to Mother Francis Hospital in a private vehicle while the female was taken by EMS to Mother Francis Hospital.
All victims’ injuries are listed as serious but not life-threatening.
Officers searched the surrounding neighborhood but were unable to locate the suspect.
Anyone with information about this incident is asked to contact the Tyler Police Department at 903-531-1000. The investigation is ongoing.
