A young girl is recovering this morning after being injured in a hit and run crash in Fallbrook. CHP says the 3-year old girl was hit last night just after 9:00 while standing in front of her home on Vanita Street.
The girl was airlifted to Rady Children's Hospital with cuts to her face and the back of her head. She is expected to be ok, however, the driver who hit her took off.
Witnesses didn't get a good look at the driver but they described the car as a white SUV, possibly a Ford Explorer, and one witness said the vehicle had no license plates.
Police talked to people in the neighborhood who say there are no street lights where this accident happened, and that roads are narrow and poorly paved.
