KAMLOOPS - A teenage girl has died after being hit by a car in Aberdeen and the suspect vehicle is on the run.
Kamloops RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Jodi Shelkie says in a news release that RCMP responded to a report of a hit and run on Pacific Way around 6:45 p.m. this evening, Nov. 4.
Shelkie says a 15-year-old girl was found dead at the scene.
The vehicle did not remain at the scene and there is no description of it, but police believe it is a pick-up truck.
