Boy fights for his life after hit and run accident
Posted: 11/22/2012
TULSA - A 5-year-old boy is in critical condition this morning after a hit and run crash in east Tulsa.
It happened just before 9:30 last night at the intersection of 14th and south 131st East Avenue.
Investigators are now looking for the driver of a Dodge Charger who ran from the mangled scene.
They say the driver was speeding and ran a stop sign, slamming into a Chevy Trailblazer.
A woman and two small children in the Chevy were hurt...
The 5-year-old was thrown from the SUV and is now fighting for his life.
The mother, her one-year-old daughter, and the passenger in the Charger are in good condition.
Right now, police are looking for a black man in his late 30's, who's five-foot-seven and 150 pounds.
He was wearing a red shirt and blue jeans at the time of the accident.
