CHICAGO, IL – One person suffered serious injuries as a result of a hit-and-run pedestrian collision Tuesday night in the Chicago Lawn neighborhood of Chicago’s South Side, according to the Chicago Police Department.

The incident occurred at 7035 South Oakley Avenue and was first reported at about 8:00 p.m.

While the events leading up to the crash remain under investigation, preliminary details indicate a pedestrian was in an alley off the roadway when they were struck by a vehicle that continued away from the scene without stopping.

Authorities described the victim’s injuries as “incapacitating,” but did not provide further information about the patient’s condition.

It’s unclear what vehicle the suspect was driving or whether a stationary object was also hit, but property damage was estimated to cost $500 or less in repairs.
