Commentary on Hit-and-Run on Susanwood Dr in San Antonio
It's always frustrating to see yet another Texas hit-and-run, yet they seem to show up in the news almost daily. Obviously the driver who took off after causing injuries must be located and brought to justice, so it's vital that police remain diligent and community members come forward with any information they can provide to help apprehend a suspect.

In the meantime everyone's stuck with questions, not least of which is "Why did they run?" There are many possible answers to that; they might simply have panicked, but in many cases something else (illegal contraband, outstanding warrants, drunk driving) contributed to their poor decision.
Only time and thorough investigation can tell what really happened, but as long as authorities remain diligent and the public contacts them with any helpful information I'm confident this can be resolved.
