Police are searching for a minivan involved in a fatal hit-and-run crash last week in the Chicago Lawn neighborhood on the Southwest Side.
Grazina Siaciuliene, 73, from Poland, was hit by a light-colored minivan in the 6400 block of South Kedzie at 2:08 p.m. Jan. 19, according to Chicago Police and the Cook County medical examiner’s office.
Siaciuliene was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital, where she was pronounced dead at 7:10 p.m. Wednesday, the medical examiner’s office said. An autopsy found she died of blunt force head injuries from being struck by a vehicle, and her death was ruled an accident.
Police are searching for a light-colored, possibly tan, 1999-03 Chrysler Town and Country, which was seen driving from the scene of the crash without helping the victim. The car may have windshield damage to the upper passenger side, and passenger-side headlight assembly, police said Wednesday.
Anyone with information should call the Major Accident Investigation Section at (312) 745-4521.
