A woman was killed in a hit-and-run crash on a Colorado interstate on New Year's Day after her rideshare driver made her exit the vehicle for allegedly becoming ill.

According to Thornton Police, the woman and her friends got out of the car on the side of Northbound I-25 about 11 miles north of Denver after she "became ill in the vehicle" just after midnight on Sunday.

The woman then walked out into the roadway and was sideswiped by a truck that continued driving, police said.

Another vehicle struck the woman as she was lying in the roadway, but that driver pulled over and remained at the scene.
