Seattle, WA (April 11, 2025) - Police in Seattle are working to investigate a hit-and-run pedestrian collision that occurred on April 11. Responders were sent to the scene on State Route 520, where they found an injured pedestrian lying in the roadway.
Reports show the pedestrian had been struck by a Toyota Prius that then fled the scene without stopping to render aid or wait for authorities to arrive. The pedestrian had been involved in a one-car crash and was attempting to cross the road when they were hit. At this time, their identity has not been reported. Police in Seattle continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding the crash.
We hope for the full and rapid recovery of the injured victim.
Pedestrian accidents remain a serious and growing issue across the United States. Each year, around 7,000 pedestrians lose their lives in traffic collisions—an alarming number that continues to rise due to driver negligence. Risky behaviors like speeding, distraction, and intoxication are among the leading causes of these devastating incidents.
In Washington, the situation is no different. Pedestrian-related injuries have been steadily increasing. In 2023 alone, more than 1,800 emergency room visits were attributed to pedestrian crash injuries—a 20% jump compared to the previous year.
