PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Police have arrested a 31-year-old man in connection with a hit-and-run crash in Philadelphia that left three injured, including a 3-year-old girl in critical condition.
Authorities say the driver mounted the sidewalk in the city's Mayfair section around 6:45 p.m. Tuesday, striking a 35-year-old woman and her two young daughters. Police say he fled the scene, leaving the 3-year-old girl still pinned underneath the vehicle.
Bystanders were able to lift the vehicle and pull the child out. All three were taken to a local hospital, with the girl suffering burns to her body. The girl's mother and sister suffered minor scrapes in the crash.
