Man Charged In Hit And Run Accident; Police Allege New, Disturbing Details In Case
The Harris County Sheriff's Office has charged a 19-year-old after they allege he ran over a 12-year-old boy on Sunday.
Gustavo Diaz is charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
Authorities say initial reports were that the 12-year-old was struck by an unknown make, model and color of vehicle. A driver who failed to stop and render aid and then fled the scene in an unknown direction of travel.
The boy was found at the intersection of Sunny Drive and Seven Mile Lane.
The 12-year-old was seriously hurt and was transported by EMS to Memorial Herman Hospital Downtown alive in critical condition. He is expected to recover from his injuries.
Investigators say they learned the boy was standing on the hood of a black Ford Crown Victoria owned by Diaz.
Authorities say Diaz started the vehicle and drove down the street with the complaint now holding on to the hood. The boy, authorities say, yelled at Diaz to stop but he refused.
When the vehicle turned on Sunny Drive, police say the boy fell off the vehicle and was run over.
Diaz reported to 911 that an unknown vehicle struck the 12-year-old and fled, according to law enforcement. Initial reports to Eyewitness News from HCSO say the first call to investigators was from a friend who was not hit.
Diaz is being held on $30,000 bond. His first court date is February 17.
