NYPD seeks driver who left scene after crashing car into teen in Brooklyn
Raw video: Surveillance cameras capture driver leave scene after crashing into teen in Brooklyn crosswalk.
Surveillance cameras from a New York City apartment building captured a harrowing scene: a hit-and-run driver striking a 14-year-old girl, who is sent hurtling into traffic -- before getting back on her feet, lucky to be alive.
The NYPD released footage from the video Saturday, seeking to identify the female driver.
The teen, Xin Yi Wang, only sustained bumps and bruises and says the video is hard to watch.

“I see myself just fly on the ground,” she told WCBS-TV. “In my memory I would say it’s just a short distance, but when [I] see the video, it’s a long distance flying. I was…oh my God, lucky I didn’t get hit by another car.”
