A 26-year-old man has been arrested after a pensioner was killed crossing the road in a hit-and-run.
The 80-year-old was mowed down in the street when she was walking in Yardley, Birmingham, on Saturday morning.
West Midlands Ambulance Service said the woman suffered "multiple serious injuries and was in cardiac arrest" when medics arrived.
She was later pronounced dead at the scene.
The woman's family has been informed but police have yet to publicly name her.
A large-scale police operation to trace the car and driver started immediately after the crash, after the vehicle sped from the scene.
Hours later, officers found a damaged blue Vauxhall Astra dumped at the roadside about six miles away in Solihull.
Police believe it to be the car involved in the crash.
A police spokesman said: "A 26-year-old visited Stechford police station and has been arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving."
A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokesman said medics attempted to resuscitate the woman as soon as they arrived but "despite their best efforts, nothing could be done".
