POLICE are searching for the person involved in a hit-and-run accident that has left a teenage girl in hospital.
Officials said the girl, who is a student of Temple Christian School, was attempting to “cross the Shirley Street corridor from the southern to the north side” when she was struck by someone driving a blue Honda.
The driver did not stop after hitting the girl, who is believed to be in her mid-teens.
The girl, police said, sustained injuries to her legs and was taken to hospital where she was admitted.
The accident happened yesterday afternoon.

Now while this is sad, and I hope she is okay, but as a person that works in the baystreet areas, there is way too many people who believe because they put their foot on the road, they now command traffic. Ignoring traffic lights and cross walks, they are present for the concerned pedestrians. But, as a nation, why would we take 2 more minutes by approaching one, when we can cross at our earlier convenience. The person should have stopped, but I don't feel sorry for any jaywalker being hit. And the thing is, that person may have been charged with negligence or some nonsense, because a "little girl" was hit.
