A woman lying in a snow-covered street in Selma was dragged by a truck Saturday night, according to police.
A Selma police officer on patrol approached the intersection of Lizzie Street and Sellers Street and noticed something in the road.
The officer determined it was a woman lying motionless and covered in snow.
As the officer got out of his patrol car, a truck approached the intersection.
The officer tried to stop the truck before it hit the woman.
Police said the woman was dragged from Sellers Street to Pollock Street.
When the truck made a left turn, the woman rolled out from underneath the vehicle, according to Selma Police Major Jeffrey Bass.
The officer stopped to help the woman and broadcast a description of the pickup truck.
Other police officers later stopped a vehicle matching that description, but it was released.
Investigators determined the stopped pickup was the vehicle involved in the incident.
The woman was taken to a hospital to be treated.
The case remains under investigation, and no charges have been filed at this time.
