A south suburban family began the new year with heartbreak after their loved one, a beloved great-grandmother, was killed in a hit-and-run.
Harriet Reynolds left her home at the Our Savior’s Senior Housing complex on Indiana Avenue in Dolton on New Year’s Eve. The 72-year-old was walking to a gas station on the same block when she was hit by a car, said Reynolds’ daughter, Consuela Vernor.
“This is tearing my family up,” Vernor said. “What if this happened to your mom? A car rolled in and ran her over and drove off. She was less than a thousand feet from her home.”
Eva Mitchell, Reynold’s friend, called her a sweetheart.
“They knew they hit something and could have stopped to see if she was okay, but instead, they kept going,” Mitchell said. “…Everyone loved Harriet. If she could help you, she would help you. I don’t know what happened or why it happened but it should not have happened.”
NBC Chicago reached out to Riverdale police about the incident, and we were awaiting a response as of Friday evening.
Vernor said police assured her that they will find and arrest the person who killed her mother. Her only prayer is that an arrest happens soon.
