Santa Clarita Sheriff's Deputies are looking for the driver of a red, Dodge Dakota in connection with a morning hit-and-run at 23792 Newhall Avenue near the Starbucks.

Original scanner broadcasts at 9:45 this morning indicated a woman had been hit by the vehicle. Deputies could not confirm the condition of the woman. A partial license plate on the 2-door truck was obtained but deputies were not in active pursuit. The driver is possibly a white male.
