Woman Killed, Man Injured in Possible Hit-and-Run Collision on I-580 in Oakland

OAKLAND (CBS SF) -- A woman died in a collision Sunday afternoon on eastbound Interstate 580 in Oakland, according to a California Highway Patrol spokesman.

CHP Oakland received a call about a collision on eastbound I-580 just west of Edwards Avenue in Oakland at about 3:10 p.m. Sunday, CHP Officer Sean Layton said. Officers found a Green Plymouth Breeze with collision damage on the right shoulder of the freeway.

A female adult passenger was pronounced dead on the scene while the male driver was transported to a hospital for moderate injuries, Layton said.

The incident is still under investigation but CHP officers believe another vehicle rear-ended the Breeze and drove away.

Anyone who witnessed the collision or has information about the incident is encouraged to call California Highway Patrol at (510) 457-2875. Witnesses may remain anonymous if they choose to.
