West Haven Woman Khurshida Mohamadi Killed In Hit-And-Run Crash: Orange Police

Accident – Death – Obituary News : West Haven Woman Fatally Struck by Multiple Vehicles in Hit-and-Run Accident in Orange

A tragic incident occurred on the evening of November 14th when a West Haven woman was fatally struck by multiple vehicles on Boston Post Road in Orange, according to the local police. The victim has been identified as 43-year-old Khurshida Mohamadi, according to Orange Assistant Police Chief Max Martins.

The Orange Police Department received a report at approximately 6:20 p.m. regarding a pedestrian being struck by several vehicles in front of McDonald’s at 57 Boston Post Road. Responding officers found Mohamadi in the roadway with multiple traumatic injuries, Martins said. The department’s accident reconstruction team promptly arrived at the scene to conduct a thorough investigation.

Preliminary investigations suggest that Mohamadi was crossing the Boston Post Road from the north side to the south side when she was hit by an unidentified dark, 4-door vehicle that fled the scene. It is believed that this vehicle struck her while she was in the left westbound travel lane.

In a stroke of luck amidst the tragedy, Mohamadi was subsequently struck by a 2009 Honda Pilot that did stop at the scene. The driver of the Honda Pilot is cooperating with the police in their investigation, Martins confirmed. Both vehicles involved in the incident were traveling westbound on the Boston Post Road.

Following the collision, Mohamadi was immediately transported to Yale New Haven Hospital, where she was sadly pronounced dead, according to Martins.

The Orange Police Department is now seeking the public’s assistance in locating additional witnesses to the accident and identifying the unknown hit-and-run vehicle. It is expected that the evading vehicle may have sustained damage to its left front. Anyone with information about the incident is urged to contact either Detective Peterson or Detective Bailey at 203-891-2138, RF Case #23-35149.

The loss of Khurshida Mohamadi has left the community devastated, and the investigation into the hit-and-run accident continues. The police are determined to bring the responsible parties to justice and provide closure for Mohamadi’s family and loved ones.
