Woman, 86, Fatally Struck
Outside Baytown Walmart

Baytown police are investigating a tragic incident that occurred late Monday morning in the parking lot of the Walmart on Garth Road, where an 86-year-old woman was struck and killed by a vehicle.

First responders were dispatched to the 4900 block of Garth Road at approximately 11:30 a.m. on April 7, following reports that a pedestrian had been hit by a car. When officers and Baytown Fire Department crews arrived, they found the woman with severe injuries.

Despite CPR efforts by both bystanders and emergency responders, the woman did not survive.

According to the Baytown Police Department, the driver involved stayed at the scene and is cooperating with the investigation. As of now, no charges have been filed, and the victim’s identity has not been released, pending notification of her family.

The incident drew a significant police presence, with crime scene tape visible across part of the parking lot. Baytown PD says the investigation remains active, and more information will be shared when available.

Giving Back to Baytown

Before its official opening, the Baytown team is hosting a series of Friends & Family events benefiting the Houston Methodist Foundation and its Pink Heals Event, which supports breast cancer patients. Community giving is part of Chicken Salad Chick’s core mission, carried out through the CSC Foundation, which supports local food banks and CURE Childhood Cancer.

Franchise owner Kim Hayes shared her excitement, saying, “Baytown’s strong sense of community is what drew us here. We believe Chicken Salad Chick’s values align perfectly with the people and spirit of this city.”
