A 55-year-old woman died after being hit by a delivery truck near the New Haven green Thursday, police said.
Although the driver left the scene, he later was found and has since cooperated with investigators, they said.
It happened about 5:40 p.m. at the intersection of Temple and Chapel streets, they said. The woman on Monday was identified as Maria Luisa Morales of New Haven.
According to a preliminary investigation, it appears Morales had been standing on the corner of Temple and Chapel near the green before she began to walk north across Chapel. The delivery truck hit her as it entered the intersection and turned right onto Temple, police said.
