Police in Irving need help looking out for a hit-and-run driver who slammed into a little girl and her grandmother outside of a hair salon on Grauwyler Road and English Street on Sunday morning. The accident victims, Tinniyah Miles, 7, and her grandmother, Alberta Sago, 57 are in critical but stable condition.
Witnesses said the grandmother and granddaughter were coming out of a salon and getting into a car when suddenly a car drove up onto the sidewalk and ran them over. According to onlookers, the little girl was thrown about 20 feet into the air while her grandmother was dragged about 50 feet by the car. The hit-and-run driver was followed by a witness for about three miles before the suspect got out of the car and motioned to a weapon in his pants. The pursuit ended as the man took off on foot.
According to police, the car was trying to avoid a collision when he hit the women. The suspect remained at large on Sunday night, but Irving police think clues from the suspect's car will help them in their search.
