Edmonton police say a 14-year-old is in hospital with serious injuries after being hit while crossing 23 Avenue Friday morning.

It is believed that the teen who was hit was crossing in a marked crosswalk that connects to the multi-use trail that crosses 23 Avenue just east of 85 Street when she was hit.
Reports indicate a silver sedan, which might be a Ford, fled the scene heading north on 85 Street.
Police say the teen was taken to hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.
