CBS Philadelphia July 28, 2021 Philadelphia Police are trying to track down a hit-and-run driver involved in separate crashes in Center City that left one woman dead and another injured. The wild chain of events started just after 2 a.m. Wednesday at Broad and Lombard Streets. Police say a Chevy Malibu rear-ended a motorcycle carrying a 29-year-old driver and a 28-year-old passenger, then left the scene. The man who was driving that motorcycle is OK. His female passenger was taken to the hospital in stable condition. Fortunately, she only suffered some bumps and bruises. Just two blocks away, police say the same driver struck a 32-year-old woman who was walking home from work. She was on the sidewalk near 15th and South Streets, when the car jumped the curb and hit her. That woman's friend, who was with her at the time, was able to dive out of the way. He is OK.
