Essex County OPP were still looking Wednesday for the hit-and-run driver who left a Windsor woman dying and alone on Highway 401.
Cory Lynn Dauphin, 35, was killed when someone struck her with a vehicle around 6:50 p.m. as she walked on the westbound side of the 401 in Tecumseh. Police said they don’t know why she was walking on the highway, but her car was parked on the shoulder near where she was hit.
Witnesses told police that some vehicles, including a tractor-trailer carrying two men, stopped shortly after the accident. But those people didn’t give their names and left before officers arrived.
Investigators said they want to hear immediately from anyone who stopped at the scene of the hit-and-run or who was near the 401 west of Manning Road around 6:50 p.m. Wednesday. You can call the OPP at 519-723-2491.
