Shortly after the start of Shabbos, a child pedestrian was seriously injured by a passing vehicle at the intersection of Bar Ilan in Jerusalem. The driver did not stop and continued driving, but during the night his brother turned him into the police where it turned out that he has never issued a driver's license.
The child was treated by Magen David Adom crew at the scene and brought to Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital in serious condition. The child suffers mainly head and face injuries.
During Shabbos his condition improved.
"Bechadrei Charedim" learned that police found the vehicle parked in a side street behind an ambulance. The driver and another passenger - Two Jewish brothers from Sanhedriya, the third brother called the police. The suspects were taken for questioning at the Lev Habira station in Jerusalem.
A preliminary investigation of traffic police in Jerusalem indicates that the offending driver, 21, was in a car with his younger brother and another passenger whose identity is unknown. The three drove on Shmuel Hanavi towards Ramot and at the intersection of Bar Ilan, according to the first interrogation of traffic examiners, the suspect hit a child crossing the street at a crosswalk. The suspect fled the scene, parked in a hidden spot and went out later in the evening.
To the investigator's question why he fled the scene said he got scared from what he'd done and had to run away.
