The other girl is recovering at a Tulsa hospital.
"Everything happened in an instant," Cherie Peterson, Sariyah's aunt told 2 News.
Peterson said the two girls were headed to the corner store for snacks when they were hit.
“They came back running down here telling her that Sariyah and her friend were hit by a car," Peterson said.
Now Peterson is asking for a solution that would keep this from happening again. "We need speed bumps out here," she said.
Sariyah and her family had recently moved to the area from Iowa. They had lived in the neighborhood for about eight months.
Peterson said Sariyah had a very joyful girl with a very vivacious personality.
“She met friends so fast because she’s a people person,” she said.
