Allentown police are looking for a driver they say struck a woman in the early hours of Thanksgiving day and then took off.
The crash occurred a little after 2 a.m. Nov. 24 at the intersection of North 17th and Turner streets, according to police.
The pedestrian was crossing 17th Street when a newer model black Cadillac hit the woman and continued driving, police said.
The driver continued south on 17th Street and was seen crossing over Hamilton Street.
The victim suffered moderate injuries and was taken to an area hospital for treatment, police Capt. Daniel Gross said.
The vehicle may have front end damage. Police said the driver and the passengers may have been coming from the MainGate Nightclub, located a few blocks away on 17th Street.
On Monday, police released photos of the Cadillac on Facebook.
Anyone with information, including surveillance video, about the vehicle or the incident should contact the Allentown Police Department Traffic Unit at 610-437-7732 and reference police incident number 22-082766.
