A teen was killed and an adult went to a hospital after being hit by a car while walking in a crosswalk on International Boulevard in East Oakland on Monday evening.
A little before 6:30 p.m., the 17-year-old Oakland resident was crossing the street near 72nd Avenue with an adult, also from Oakland, when they were hit by a driver headed east "at a high rate of speed," according to Oakland police.
The teen died at the scene and the adult was taken to the hospital in stable condition, police said in a news release Tuesday.
The driver allegedly fled after the collision but was soon involved in a multi-vehicle crash in the 8400 block of International Boulevard before being taken into custody by Alameda County sheriff's deputies, police said.
"It appears alcohol may have been a factor in this collision," according to police.
