Summary
A 12-year-old boy, Asher, was hit by an SUV while biking in Mid-City just before 8 p.m., leaving him with a broken jaw and leg—his jaw wired shut as he starts seventh grade. Surveillance shows he rolled through a stop sign as the driver sped away without braking or swerving. Neighbors heard his cries and called 911, saving his life. His parents credit his helmet for preventing a worse outcome and suspect the driver may be a rideshare driver based on a lit sign in the footage. Police have yet to respond, and the family is pleading for anyone with video or vehicle recognition to contact NOPD’s Hit and Run Unit or Crimestoppers GNO.
