GEORGE TOWN: The senior citizen involved in the hit-and-run accident at Pulau Tikus here this morning has died.
In a statement released to the media, Northeast district police chief ACP Mior Faridalatrash Wahid said in the 10am incident the victim, identified as Foo Swee Wah, 60, sustained severe head injuries and a broken leg.
"She passed away at about 8.45pm", he said.
A 12-second video clip recorded by a motorist has since gone viral in the social media.
