Police are searching for a 17-year-old suspected in a hit-and-run that left a four-year-old child seriously injured in Anne Arundel County

Just before 4 p.m. on Jan. 29, officers responded to the 300 block of Arden Road West for a hit-and-run crash involving a juvenile pedestrian. 

The child was taken to Johns Hopkins Hospital by Baltimore City Fire personnel with life-threatening injuries.

According to police, the 4-year-old ran out into the road and was hit by a 2024 Volkswagen Tiguan going down Arden Road West. 

The driver fled the scene but a witness was able to help officers locate the vehicle and a possible driver, believed to be a 17-year-old from Baltimore, was identified. 

Anne Arundel County police are continuing to investigate. Anyone with information on the suspected driver of the vehicle should contact the AACP Traffic Safety Section.
