A pregnant woman in Oklahoma is recovering after being hit by a car outside an arena Thursday night.
Police said the driver who hit Nicole Lewis left the scene.
Lewis, who works at the BOK Center, was hit late Thursday after leaving a concert at the arena. She said she stepped into the street after waiting at the crosswalk and a blue SUV came around the corner and hit her.
The SUV kept going, and the crash left Lewis in the street with a broken leg. She immediately moved to protect her stomach, but feared another car might hit her.
Lewis said that a group of strangers came to her aid. They formed a protective circle around her and called 911.
First responders rushed to assure Lewis that her baby was OK after they found a heartbeat.
Police are searching for the driver responsible for the hit-and-run. A detailed description is not yet available.
