West Haven Woman Killed In Hit-And-Run Crash: Orange Police

WEST HAVEN, CT — A West Haven woman has died after being struck by multiple vehicles on Boston Post Road in Orange, according to police.

The victim has been identified as 43-year-old Khurshida Mohamadi, according to Orange Assistant Police Chief Max Martins.

Orange police received a report around 6:20 p.m. on Nov. 14 of a pedestrian struck by multiple vehicles on the Boston Post Road in front of McDonald’s, 57 Boston Post Road.

Responding officers found Mohamadi in the roadway with multiple traumatic injuries, Martins said. The department’s accident reconstruction team responded to conduct the investigation, according to Martin.

Martins said it appears that Mohamadi was crossing the Boston Post Road from the north side to the south side when she was struck while in the area of the left westbound travel lane by an unknown dark, 4-door vehicle that fled the scene.

Mohamadi was then struck by a 2009 Honda Pilot that did stop, and the operator is cooperating, Martins said.

Both vehicles had been traveling westbound on the Boston Post Road, Martins said.

Mohamadi was taken to Yale New Haven Hospital, where she was pronounced dead, Martins said.

The Orange Police Department is asking for help with locating additional witnesses to the collision and locating the unknown evading vehicle, which should have some damage to the left front of the vehicle, Martins said.

Anyone with information is asked to contact either Detective Peterson or Detective Bailey at 203-891-2138, RF Case #23-35149.
