The victim in Thursday's hit and run accident near the Unqua Elementary School has died, police said.
Ellen Meany, 45, died Monday from the injuries sustained in the accident, according to police.
"No words can describe how a loss of this nature affects those who knew her," Deanna Catapano, the school's acting principal wrote in a letter to parents.
Meany was the mother of three Unqua students in grades two four and six. Catapano said that counselors have been made available to students at the school.
She was riding her bike south on Unqua in the northbound lane when she struck the mirror of a parked vehicle near Morris Lane, police said.
She fell off the bike and landed on the road when she was hit by a car. The vehicle, which left the scene is described as a late 1990s model Ford Taurus or Mercury Sable. It has four doors and is colored teal or metallic green.
Police have released a photo of a similar looking vehicle. Anyone with information regarding this accident should call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-244-TIPS. All callers will remain anonymous.
