The man ran away from a blue pickup truck after crashing the truck Thursday afternoon in the area of Common and Hayes roads on the Warren/Roseville border, police said.

Officers did not find anyone near the pickup truck when they began investigating the minor crash just after noon and treated the scene as a hit-and-accident, police said.

However, during the investigation, officers discovered a 62-year-old Roseville woman dead in the pickup truck's bed, police said.
