Investigators looking for driver accused in hit-and-run, severely injuring 2 teens in N. Harris Co.

HARRIS COUNTY, Texas (KTRK) -- An investigation is underway on Sunday after a driver hit two teenage girls and left them in the middle of the road in north Harris County overnight, according to the Harris County Sheriff's Office.

The incident happened in the 100 block of Hill and Airline Drive at around 4:30 a.m.

In an update Sunday evening, Sheriff Ed Gonzalez said the suspected vehicle, a 2008 black Audi, had been recovered. The driver, however, has not yet been identified or located.

According to authorities, the two teenagers, believed to be 15 years old, were riding a bicycle when the Audi struck them. The driver fled the scene and did not stop to help the two badly injured girls.

Surveillance video obtained by ABC13 from a nearby business shows the moment of impact, where the driver rams into the teens, who are out of the camera frame, and then speeds off.

Both teens were taken to the hospital, where one was reportedly in critical condition and the other in serious condition.
