The Brooklyn Park Police Department is asking for the public’s help in finding a suspect involved in a hit-and-run Wednesday that injured a girl.

The police department said a 12-year-old girl was hit by a car around 8:42 a.m. when she was trying to cross the street to get to her bus stop at the intersection of 63rd Avenue and Boone Avenue.

Police say the driver of the vehicle did not stop after the incident and drove off, continuing east on 63rd Avenue. The girl was taken to the hospital with “moderate injuries” and she is expected to recover from her injuries.

Brooklyn Park Precinct Inspector Elliot Faust told 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS the car, a 2015-19 Hyundai Sonata, is missing its passenger-side rearview mirror.

“It’s missing the passenger side mirror. We believe the driver is a white female,” said Faust. “They did not stop and we’re looking to find them and speak to them about the incident.”

Keion Martin told KSTP he was walking his children to school when they heard the sound of an accident and then saw the aftermath of the incident.

“The car just came through real quick and sounded like any other car trying to stop. I thought it was a car crash,” said Martin.
