PHOENIX, AZ (March 30, 2022) – Early Sunday, 32-year-old Kassandra Valdez suffered injuries in a hit-and-run crash on Interstate 17 and Thomas Road.
 
The incident happened when a vehicle struck Valdez as she crossed Interstate 17 and Thomas Road. Then, the vehicle fled the scene without stopping.
 
After the crash, responders transported Kassandra Valdez to a hospital with several injuries.
 
“They had to put plastic surgery on her, which they had to construct her lip, and her teeth are kind of gone too,” said Manuela Valdez, the victim’s mother. “She’s got a fracture in her leg. My daughter feels like she doesn’t want to be in this world because she’s not pretty anymore. Or she’s not able to do the things she used to do before.”
