Police ask for help after fatal Seekonk accident

The Seekonk police are asking for the public's help in finding the driver of a vehicle that struck and killed a 38-year-old woman who was walking with her daughter yesterday.

Maria Aguiar of 155 Chestnut St. was struck and killed by a “white SUV-type” vehicle while walking down her street at about 6:22 p.m. with her daughter, who was riding a bicycle, according to Seekonk police.

The 10-year-old was not injured, police say, but she did see the accident.

The driver of the vehicle did not stop, but drove west down Chestnut Street.

The Seekonk police are investigating with the Massachusetts State Police. They are looking for a white SUV with damage to the passenger side front and possibly to the windshield.

Authorities are asking anyone with information to call Seekonk police at (508)336-8123
