TUKWILA, Wash. (AP) — A hit-run accident early Monday left a woman unconscious with serious injuries in Tukwila where another woman was killed in a Friday night hit-run.

Police say a 26-year-old woman was in a crosswalk on International Boulevard about 2 a.m. Monday when she was hit by a pickup truck that fled the scene.

The woman was taken to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle.

The truck was found abandoned in Tukwila with a dent in front and a hole in the grill. Police searched the area with dogs and arrested a suspect.

In Friday’s accident, one and possibly two vehicles struck and killed a 24-year-old Seattle woman who had been walking along East Marginal Way South. She died at a hospital.
