CHICAGO (CBS) — It’s been almost three weeks and there are still no answers for the family of Mia Arriaga, killed by a driver who didn’t stop. In the early hours of November 1st, Mia Maria Arriaga was hit by a pickup truck and left bleeding at 18th and Ashland. “As my niece was fighting for her life at Stroger Hospital, she was listed as a Jane Doe,” said Mia’s aunt Valerie Santiago. Santiago said that’s because her niece was the victim of a pick-pocket while she lay on the street. CBS 2 was told by the family that the mini-mart across the street had surveillance video, but the store said it gave the video to the police. CPD said CBS 2 would have to file a Freedom of Information Act request.
