FARGO, N.D. – A man is arrested after a deadly hit-and-run crash Monday morning.

The crash happened at the intersection of 38th Street and 53rd Avenue South near Walmart around 6:30 AM. The Highway Patrol says a 36-year-old woman was crossing the street when she was struck by a Dodge Charger and the vehicle kept going. A source tells WDAY Radio News that the woman killed was an employee at WalMart.

Authorities say they found the car in Fargo by matching a vehicle from a previous contact with law enforcement. Twenty-three-year-old Alex Cruz was arrested on felony suspicion of leaving the scene of a fatal crash.

The Highway Patrol says the name of the woman who died will be released Christmas Eve.
