Tucson Police, code lights

Tucson police officers are searching for the driver involved in a hit-and-run crash that left a two-year-old child and their mother injured on Friday.

At about 6:30 p.m., a silver or gray 2000’s Ford F150 struck the pair as a family member pushed the child in a stroller with their mother next to them in the crosswalk at West Irvington Road and South 9th Avenue.

The child remains in critical condition, the department said. Their mother, who is six months pregnant, suffered minor injuries.

Anyone with information regarding the collision is asked to call 911 or 88-CRIME, an anonymous tipster line.
