The victim, Eri Nakamura, was walking south on the shoulder of Hwy. 120 — also known as Century Avenue — near 5th Street when she was struck about 7:45 p.m., the State Patrol said.
Nakamura, 65, of Oakdale, was taken to Regions Hospital where she died of her injuries, said Lt. Gordon Shank, of the State Patrol.
The motorist who hit Nakamura was driving a 2015 to 2020 silver Mitsubishi Outlander. The vehicle likely has front-end damage, the patrol said.
Dispatchers were able to track the SUV as it continued on Century Avenue, then west on Interstate 94. The vehicle exited the freeway at Hwy. 61, its last known location. Investigators still were looking for the SUV as of Monday afternoon.
Anybody with information can call the patrol at 651-539-1151.
