Bellevue police have arrested the driver who fled a hit-and-run crash that left a pedestrian critically injured.

Police say one car initially struck a 24-year-old woman on Coal Creek Parkway around 3:30 p.m. The driver stopped.

But police say the driver of a dark Porsche Cayenne SUV then ran over the woman, stopping momentarily before speeding away.

The woman was tracked to her home nearby and arrested late Wednesday on suspicion of felony hit-and-run.

The pedestrian was taken to the hospital with life-threatening injuries.
