The woman suffered a heavy head trauma and was taken to the Jacobi hospital, where she was declared dead.

The police said the driver remained on site and there were no arrests. The victim's identity was not published publicly when the NYPD worked to notify her family.

The police also said that a unknown Chevy driver had hit a 32-year-old woman in the Lafayette Avenue and Marcus Garvey Boulevard in Bed-Stuy shortly before midnight.

The woman brought the woman to the Kings County Hospital, where she was declared dead. Her name was not immediately published until her family was notified.
