One night my family and I went to the West Lampeter community fair. It was the last night of the fair and it was time to go home. On the way back to our car we saw something very tragic, it was a car crash! Right in front of our eyes.
The car ran right into the other car and it just drove away without even checking on the people that got hit. We sprinted over to the car that got damaged, it was all dented and scratched up. I saw the girl that was in the car was ok but the mom that was in the car was not ok. She was shaking and unconscious in the seat of the car. We called the ambulance and the police department went right away to chase down the car that hit the other car and to get the mom to the emergency room immediately.
It was the scariest thing that I have seen in real life, their were ambulances galore and cops trying to hunt down the car crasher by asking questions to us. I was just standing right in the middle of all this commotion not doing anything about the situation. I was so confused about what was going on and I didn’t know if I should have helped or not.
Finally the cops started moving into their cop cars and went chasing after the car crasher. Also the ambulance took the mom to the emergency room immediately.
We were watching the girl while her dad was going to pick her up. We were trying to calm her down but she was too scared to calm down. The girl was shaking and crying so we didn’t know how to calm her down. Finally her dad came to pick her up and she wasn’t crying or shaking anymore. In the end The cops chased down the person who hit the car and everything was now ok. After it all, we checked in with the family and the mom just had a concussion.
