The Capitol Hill mother says her son was trapped under the tire.
WASHINGTON — Police are still searching for the driver who hit a woman, her son, and their dog – and then drove off in Northeast D.C.A neighbor's Nest camera captured the hit-and-runThe Capitol Hill mother told WUSA9 she was crossing the street with her two children and their dog when the SUV hit them.“His left foot was trapped under the wheel of the vehicle. My dog, I thought he was dead. I wasn’t sure how badly my son was injured. My daughter was screaming.” the mother said.
The mother, who did not want to be identified, said the impact knocked her out of her shoes. She said bystanders rushed to her son who was under a tire.“ I was trying to get my son’s foot dislodged from the tire. Someone yelled at the driver to pull over." mom said. In the video, the driver appears to pull over but then drives off. Neighbors say the intersection is a problem. Drivers often skip the stop sign.
“So a lot of people drag race down to make that light and blow through the stop sign." Adrian Muys said. Mom tells WUSA9 police told her the vehicle was recovered with her dog's hair on it. Mom said, “Very unsettling to know someone wouldn’t stop to see. My son and dog could have been lying dead and the driver just takes off."WPMT would like to send you push notifications about the latest news and weather.
