A 13-year-old girl is recovering from critical injuries she sustained after a small car hit her while she was riding her bicycle in a crosswalk in Santa Ana, according to a news report.
Santa Ana police are searching for the driver of what has only been described as a small car that hit and critically injured Teresa Pham, 13, at the intersection of West Warner Avenue and South Greenville Street in Santa Ana. Her father, Peter Pham, told police that Teresa was wearing a helmet and was riding her bike to her cousin’s house to do homework.
Teresa suffered broken bones and cuts to her face; police are also searching for a man who rendered first aid to Teresa and who they believe is a potential witness in the hit-and-run incident. Anyone with information about the vehicle or the Good Samaritan is asked to call Santa Ana police at 714-245-8214.
