HOUSTON (KTRK) -- Police say a woman was struck by a car and dragged about 100 feet in the Midtown area.

Now that woman is dead and detectives want to find the drivers responsible.

The accident happened on San Jacinto Street. The victim has been described by police as homeless.

They say she was seen between Webster and Hadley just before she was struck and killed.

We do not know much about the moments before she died, only that the suspect's vehicle is a white or light colored, four door BMW.

The HPD vehicular crimes unit is checking street cameras for surveillance video and anything that can lead to the person who did this.
