A girl struck and killed by a hit-and-run driver in south Fulton County Tuesday night has been identified as 5-year-old Jaleah Felix of College Park.
The incident happened around 8 p.m. in the 5300 block of Campbellton Road, Fulton County police Cpl. Kay Lester said.
It appears the girl and her sibling were crossing the street on their way to Sandtown Park when Jaleah lost her shoe and was struck while trying to retrieve it, Lester said.
Police believe Jaleah was hit by a dark-colored pickup or SUV-style truck.
The child was transported to Grady Memorial Hospital, where she died.
