The Apple Valley woman who was injured in a hit-and-run accident remains in critical condition at a Minneapolis hospital.
Authorities say Joan LeVasseur was walking across a street in Apple Valley on Friday evening when a vehicle struck her and kept going.
She was transferred to Hennepin County Medical Center and was still listed in critical condition on Sunday, a hospital spokeswoman said.
LeVasseur's family says they are hoping whoever was responsible for the accident comes forward. Several witnesses saw the hit-and-run, but police say no one was able to get a license plate number for the vehicle.
Police say the vehicle is likely to have fresh front-end damage from the crash.
