A 17-year-old girl who was hit by a driver that fled the scene in Severn, Maryland, while walking home last weekend has died.
The teenager was rushed to shock trauma with “critical life-threatening injuries,” after the hit and run accident on Sunday morning, Oct. 29. She was walking with a group of friends along the 7800 block of WB&A Road after leaving a house party, Anne Arundel County Police said.
The driver fled the scene and remained at large, as of writing on Thursday. Police believe the car was speeding and leaving the same party Kiersten had attended. Investigators are offering a $2,000 reward in the case.
A family spokesman, Stephanie Shade, said they are “heartbroken” over Kiersten at 3:15 pm, “On behalf of Kiersten’s family, we would like to thank everyone for their love, concern, and prayers.”
According to the page, Kiersyen was in critical condition on life support, before she died.
Police said the only details they had on the vehicle was that it was “silver with broken headlight assembly (clear portion) and windshield damage.” The vehicle should also have tinted windows.
Officers first responded to a call of a pedestrian being hit on Oct. 28 at approximately 2:10 a.m. The investigation is ongoing.
Anyone who may have any information about the incident or a possible vehicle is asked to call 410-222-8573 or 8082.
“Rip... Too young to have gone,” one person commented.
