On Jan. 8, officers with the Missouri City Police Department were dispatched to the intersection of FM 1092 at Plantation Settlement at about 4 p.m. after receiving a call of an auto-pedestrian accident.
At the scene, police found that the young girl had been hit by a vehicle as she had entered a crosswalk. After being hit, the young girl returned to Quail Valley Middle School, where she's a student, and reported the incident.
The young girl suffered a minor injury and was treated by paramedics at the scene. Her mother was also called, and she took the 12-year-old to a nearby urgent care.
It's unclear if the driver stayed or fled. The case remains under investigation.
