San Diego County Crimestoppers is offering $1,000 reward for information leading to the identification and arrest of three drivers who failed to stop after striking a woman and killing her in Linda Vista four months ago.
Family members identified the victim as Wynonna Mitchell, 48, a resident of Chollas View.
Mitchell died September 11 after she was hit by three vehicles traveling northbound on Linda Vista Road near Mesa College Drive.
After the first vehicle hit Mitchell and didn't stop, she was struck again by a pickup truck and then a third time by a sedan.
Mitchell's family told NBC 7 she was the mother of nine children and has two grandchildren, with two more on the way. Her death left an emptiness in their hearts.
“No one helped. They just left her for dead like she was just a nothing, a nobody,” Mitchell’s daughter Le’Toya Jackson said.
Investigators say evidence left at the scene identifies the first vehicle as a 1985-1986 Toyota Camry. The car sustained a broken front, left, driver side turn signal.
