JEFFERSON CO., Pa. (EYT) – State police responded to a hit-and-run crash that occurred early Thursday morning involving a Corsica woman.

The crash was called in several hours later by a local property owner, according to police.
Police say Davis was using a seat belt and was not injured.
The vehicle sustained disabling damage and was towed from the scene by Leadbetter’s Towing.
