A Pleasant Hill woman died after jumping out of a moving vehicle and being struck by multiple other vehicles on Interstate Highway 580 in Livermore on Saturday night, and the California Highway Patrol is asking witnesses to share what they know.

The Audi driver allegedly briefly stopped on the shoulder before driving off. The driver later reported what happened after they got to Tracy, according to a CHP press release.
The victim sustained fatal injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene.
The driver was arrested for alleged felony hit-and-run.
