Greater Sudbury Police Service (GSPS) is searching for a vehicle after a deadly hit-and-run in the city's south end Tuesday.

"A witness to the collision called 911 and rendered assistance to the victim. The victim was transported to HSN by EMS where she succumbed to her injuries," the release said.
The intersection was closed while traffic management and investigators examined the scene, including reconstruction of the crash.

The name of the victim is not being released until the next of kin can be contacted.
