DetNews.com - Police say a 19-year-old woman who died after being struck by a car was an innocent bystander witnessing a brawl in downtown Grand Rapids.

A 24-year-old woman was arrested about 5 a.m. Friday after Tifanee Crews died and four other pedestrians were injured. Police tell The Grand Rapids Press they expect to present their findings to prosecutors Saturday, and the suspect likely will be arraigned Monday.

Police say about 20 people were fighting outside a bar about 2 a.m. when the driver of a Cadillac drove onto a sidewalk and struck two people, then turned onto another street and hit Crews and two others. Police say the driver was involved in the fight but did not elaborate.

The four others who were struck were treated at area hospitals and released.
