'My injuries are bad, but the psychological feelings are worse than the injuries,' said Fedra Ruiz Aleman.
It happened on June 4 at the intersection of 6th and South streets during Fedra Ruiz Aleman's routine walk home from work.Philadelphia police are still looking for the driver responsible for a hit-and-run crash that left a local woman seriously injured.
"I just heard like a car, I don't know if it's braking or trying to go really fast. Next thing you know, I was on the floor and can't move," said Aleman. "I just remember all of a sudden being on the floor and the warm blood going through my face. There was this one really nice man by my side telling me, 'Stay with me, don't fall asleep.'"
"It's awful. You have no control over the situation, you can't be there to help the person you care about the most," said Peter Lawrence. Police said finding the suspect may be difficult as the car wasn't reported stolen and wasn't properly registered.
