As we previously reported, police began searching for a man after a child was hit Sunday around 7:30 p.m. while trying to cross the street in the 6400 block of S. 24th St. to meet her mother. The impact spun the child around and injured her foot. She was taken to the hospital for treatment of what was described as a moderate injury. The vehicle left the scene.
