The driver stopped and offered to drive the girl home, sources said. But when a witness protested, saying the police needed to be called and the girl needed to go to a hospital, the woman allegedly drove away.
The 14-year-old was treated for bruising to her body.
Police said they’re searching for a white woman, about 35 to 40 years old, with a medium to heavy build and brown hair.
Anyone with information about the crash is asked to call NYPD’s Crime Stoppers hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or 1-888-57-PISTA (74782) for Spanish. You can also submit a tip via the Crime Stoppers website, by Tweeting @NYPDTips or by texting a tip to 274637 (CRIMES) and then entering TIP577.
