The search continues for the driver who mowed over a teenager with a car in north Harris County, then fled the scene.
The 17-year-old is currently in critical condition, recovering at the hospital after being hit along Treaschwig last night.
It happened at around 9:20pm. The teen had just finished his shift at a nearby McDonald’s and began his walk down the 5300 hundred block of Treschwig toward home.
But he never made it. Just shortly after turning on the road, witnesses saw a large, dark-colored truck leave the roadway and hit the teenager. He suffered life threatening injuries, and was transported via Life Flight.
Precinct 4 deputy constables were out this morning gathering more evidence. Their first priority is finding the truck that left the scene.
“The truck we’re looking for is a blue or black truck, possibly a two-ton,” said Lt. Greg Lowry with Precinct 4. . It’s lifted, with big tires. It’s going to have loud exhaust, and broken handle in the lift gate.”
If you have any information about this case, you’re asked to Harris County Precinct 4 Constables Office.
