It has been 21 years since a truck driver found the body of a woman along the side of Highway 97, and police are still probing the fatal hit-and-run.
Susan Davidson, 37, had left a home at 3:15 a.m. April 19, 2003 and was walking on the highway about 10 kilometres south of 100 Mile House, where she lived, when she was hit by a motorist who fled the scene.
"There is someone out there who knows what happened to Susan Davidson on April 19, 2003," said Cpl. Melissa Jongema, BC Highway Patrol media relations officer. "BC Highway Patrol is asking that anyone who may have seen Susan walking that night, anyone who has any information about the hit-and-run, or anyone who may have hit something that they thought was an animal that night, to please contact BC Highway Patrol at 250-395-2456 and refer to file 2003-1225."
Police say she was wearing an ankle-length, dark brown oilskin coat, similar to an Australian outback coat. At the time, the area had little development and no lights.
Her body was found at about 3:42 a.m. in the right lane of the southbound lanes near the junction with Highway 24.
Paramedics were called but she was pronounced deceased at the scene.
