TPD spokeswoman Stephanie Taylor told local media that the speeding driver hit the women at 1:47 a.m., then continued west on Culver Road without stopping.

She then said the women had been at a nightclub, Spades Lounge, and were crossing to the parking area.

Taylor also said a witness performed CPR on one of the victims before both were transported by ambulance to DCH Regional Medical Center.

TPD says one woman remained hospitalized as of Tuesday and officers believe the suspect vehicle could be a dark gray or black Dodge Charger or Dodge Challenger similar to those in the picture below.
