ST. PAUL, Minn. (FOX 9) - Police are investigating a pedestrian crash that left two people dead in Roseville, Minnesota Thursday night.

The crash occurred at Woodbridge Street and Larpenteur Avenue, according to the St. Paul Police Department. Larpenteur Avenue is closed in the area of the crash and the public is asked to avoid the area. 

According to Roseville Police Chief Rick Mathwig, an adult man and woman are dead as a result of the incident.

The driver that struck the pedestrians stopped and is cooperating with police. In a release Thursday night, police say he is a 72-year-old male. 

Police are also looking for another vehicle that was passing by at the time of the crash. Mathwig asked anyone who was traveling westbound on Larpenteur just before 6 p.m. to call police.
