It has been just over a week and there are still no answers in the hit-and-run crash that killed a 2-year-old girl in northwest Miami-Dade.
“We have an appointment with Metro Dade police, because they have to ask more questions about their daughter,” the family’s pastor, Jackson Janvier, told Local 10 News on Thursday.
Local 10 was there as Maritza’s parents and their pastor arrived at the Northside District station for the Miami-Dade Police Department.
Both parents suffered injuries in the April 27 crash that happened along Northwest 12th Avenue and 116th Terrace in Miami-Dade’s Pinewood neighborhood.
Police said the family was trying to cross the street when they were struck by a car.
A mother and father who were injured in a hit-and-run crash that killed their only daughter meet with police.
“She’s crying a lot. She doesn’t feel good at all,” Janvier said about Maritza’s mother.
The mother is still in tremendous pain.
“She cannot stand up. She doesn’t feel good. She’d like to stay home,” Janvier said.
Last week, the family provided Local 10 News with surveillance video that shows a car rounding a corner right before the father says they were hit.
Inside the police station Thursday, the family was greeted by victims’ advocates and a detective as Miami-Dade police work around the clock to solve this case.
Anyone with further information is asked to call Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at 305-471-8477.
