CHICAGO (CBS) – After a fatal hit-and-run accident In Downers Grove, police said they found the driver involved – a 74-year-old woman who is cooperating with the investigation.

Police also say surveillance video shows the victim, 65-year-old Robin Robinson, stumbling and lying in the road just before the accident.

The victim’s sister said the Jewel-Osco employee had lived on Ogden Avenue for years, did not have a car and was known to walk everywhere.

“She was very well-known and well-liked in Downers Grove,” Annie Moore said, “and because she walked — she walked to and from all these jobs — people called her the Ogden Runner.”

The investigation is ongoing.
