PHOENIX — A Valley family is looking for justice after a hit-and-run accident was caught on camera, but the driver still has yet to be caught.
On Monday, November 2, at 5:50 a.m., 18-year-old Mayson Ginn was walking to school at North Canyon High School, a route where she crosses the street at 35th Avenue and Thunderbird in West Phoenix.
After letting the left-hand turners pass, Ginn began crossing. A dark-colored car hit her, knocking Mayson unconscious, then driving away.

"I started crossing the road, and then out of nowhere, I saw this black car come and hit me," said Ginn. "[I remember] waking up on the floor in the road, I just saw blood everywhere."
The hit-and-run was caught on an auto shop's security camera from the other side of the intersection. About 30 seconds after she was hit, a few witnesses stopped to help Ginn.
"I felt really good that strangers were helping me out, but I was scared most of the time," said Ginn.
"It’s not a phone call you want to get," said Rachel Pruet, Ginn's mom. "I want this person to be caught. Who knows how many times this person’s done this?"
Ginn suffered a broken nose, broken teeth, a concussion, and other scrapes and bruises.
"My teeth are messed up, and I’m already really insecure about my teeth already. And now that they’re broken and I have to deal with it and feel my teeth how they are. I want my teeth fixed," said Ginn.
Ginn was told by Phoenix police that it would be months after her accident before a detective would be put on her case.
