ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — One person is dead after police say someone hit their scooter with their car and kept driving on a busy northeast Albuquerque road.
The crash happened near Tramway and Menaul around 2:30 a.m. Monday.
Investigators say a red scooter was traveling south on Tramway. Then, a car ran into the scooter, causing the driver to be thrown into the roadway.
