SAN ANTONIO – A woman was hit and killed by a vehicle on Interstate 35 northbound just south of downtown early Monday morning, San Antonio police said.

The incident occurred around 3:40 a.m. on I-35 near the Theo and Malone exit.

According to police, officers received several calls about a woman acting strangely and sitting in the lanes of traffic.

Police said several drivers had to swerve to go around her but that when officers arrived she had already been hit by a truck and killed.

Witnesses told police that the truck did not see the woman sitting in the roadway.

Investigators say the driver of the truck, however, did not stop to render aid. The woman killed has not been identified.

I-35 northbound was closed as emergency crews worked at the scene. Drivers were forced to exit at Division Avenue.

The investigation into the crash is ongoing, police said.
