A woman was run over by a passenger vehicle while standing on a Maple Grove sidewalk and killed Tuesday morning, police said.

The crossover-style vehicle was reported to police about 11:45 a.m. as being driven erratically leading up to the woman's death on Elm Creek Boulevard near Hemlock Lane N., police Capt. Keith Terlinden said.

The first officer arrived at the scene near the Shoppes at Arbor Lake, a major retail area, about the time the woman was struck by the vehicle as it headed east along Elm Creek Boulevard, Terlinden said.

The driver, who was hospitalized with noncritical injuries, also hit two vehicles after running over the woman, Terlinden said.

The victim was standing with another person when she was hit, Terlinden said. She was pronounced dead at the scene. Her name has yet to be released, pending notification of family.
