Motorist flees after striking child in stroller in Tacony

A motorist stuck a child in a stroller on a Tacony street corner, then fled the scene during rush hour on Feb. 17, police say.

Investigators are looking for a dark green 1998 Dodge van with an extended roof and light green stripe on the side. The accident happened at 6:07 p.m. when a man was pushing his 3-year-old son in a stroller northbound on Ditman Street. As the pedestrians crossed Levick Street, the northbound van began to turn left onto Levick and clipped the stroller, ejecting the child.
