A person flagged officers to a 40-year-old woman lying in the middle of the street, police said.

The victim’s daughter, Hali Stapleton, spoke to ABC7 and identified her as Samantha Bragg. Her family is still seeking justice nearly one month after the crash.
“It was all just a big shock, and how could somebody do that,” Stapleton said. ” We don’t even know how long she was laying in the road.”
Cook County Crimestoppers is offering a reward of $1,000 for information in the hit-and-run that killed Bragg.
No one is in custody and the Major Accidents Unit is investigating.
