A California woman faces murder charges after a woman she allegedly ran over with a vehicle died weeks after the assault, according to police.
FOX 2 in the San Francisco Bay Area reported that officers with the San Pablo Police Department responded to reports of a vehicle versus a pedestrian at about 2:30 p.m. on Dec. 8.
When the officers arrived, they learned a 60-year-old woman had been struck by a vehicle being operated by 39-year-old Dene Blakely of Richmond, California.

Following the collision, the 60-year-old victim was transported to an area hospital to be treated for major injuries. The victim remained in critical condition after surgery, but died on Dec. 23, police said.
