Mother pleads for hit-and-run driver to come forward
A mother whose daughter is in extremely critical condition after she was struck by a hit-and-run driver is pleading for the driver to turn themselves in.
NORTH PHILADELPHIA - A mother is pleading for the driver who hit her daughter and left her in the middle of a North Philadelphia street to turn themselves in.
"No one deserves to go through what Hailey’s going through right now. Nobody. And I want my Hailey back. And, I want whoever did this to her to be found," Colleen Worrell said.
Worrell’s 25-year-old daughter, Hailey, was crossing Broad Street at Susquehanna in North Philadelphia Friday night, around 9:30, when police say the driver hit her and never stopped to help.
She is now in extremely critical condition, with a fractured skull, hips and other severe injuries.
