Nashville Police Ask For Help Locating Car After Fatal Hit & Run

From the City of Nashville:

December 9, 2019

The pedestrian struck and killed early Monday morning by a hit and run driver on Apache Trail near the entrance to the apartment complex at 4501 Packard Drive is identified as Kimberly Cox, 38.

Cox, who lived at the apartment complex, was walking behind her 19-year-old daughter on Apache Trail at 5:20 a.m. when she was struck by an eastbound vehicle sedan, possibly a Nissan with damage to the front passenger side including a missing headlight and fog light. Cox died at the scene. She and her daughter, who was not injured, were walking to the Shell, 197 Haywood Lane, where both worked.

Additionally, both women were walking on the side of the roadway facing toward traffic, as is required by Metro ordinance, since there is no sidewalk.

Anyone with information about the vehicle and/or its driver is urged to contact the Emergency Communications Center at 862-8600, Hit & Run investigators at 862-7713 or Crime Stoppers at 615-742-7463.
