Phoenix, AZ (April 25, 2026) — On Tuesday evening, a woman remains in critical condition after a hit-and-run crash on 20th Avenue in central Phoenix.

According to authorities the incident happened around 10:20 p.m. near 20th Avenue and Indian School Road.

Responding officers found the victim suffering from serious injuries and rushed her to a nearby hospital for emergency treatment. She continues to fight for her life following the collision.

Do The Right Thing. Stay. Help. Take Responsibility.

A hit-and-run is not just a crime, but a devastating act of cowardice leaving victims injured, scared, and sometimes fighting for their lives. If you’re involved in a traffic accident, stop immediately. Call 911. Help those who are hurt.

Remember that fleeing the scene only worsens the situation and carries serious legal consequences, including felony charges. Victims deserve accountability and justice.

Hit-and-run incidents leave victims without immediate accountability and delay critical help. Drivers must stop after any collision, render aid, and contact authorities—doing so can save lives and prevent further harm.
