Antioch, CA (September 16, 2026) — On Saturday night, a 63-year-old woman suffered major injuries after a hit-and-run crash on Sunset Drive near the Napa Auto Parts store in Antioch.

Police responded shortly before 10 p.m. and found the woman with serious injuries to her arms and legs. Emergency crews airlifted her to a trauma center for treatment.

Authorities continue to investigate and are asking anyone with information about the crash to contact the Antioch Police Department.

Do The Right Thing. Stay. Help. Take Responsibility.

A hit-and-run is not just a crime but a devastating act of cowardice, leaving victims injured, scared, and sometimes fighting for their lives. If you’re involved in a traffic accident, stop immediately. Call 911. Help those who are hurt.

Remember that fleeing the scene only worsens the situation and carries serious legal consequences, including felony charges. Victims deserve accountability and justice.

Pedestrians can be difficult to see, especially at night. Drivers should slow down, stay alert, and watch carefully for people crossing or walking near the roadway.
