SAN ANTONIO – "The woman just kind of ran out in front of traffic got hit (and) bounced off a couple of cars," said witness Kristen Castillo.
The accident happened around 3:30 p.m. at Fredericksburg and Wurzbach roads.
"It was very upsetting. We were hoping she was OK. She was conscious but not responsive so I think she was in shock," said Al Dandridge, another witness.
San Antonio police said the woman was trying to cross the street when she was hit by one car and seconds later she was hit by another.
Witnesses on scene rushed to help but say the victim was unresponsive.
"We had one army medic that was out there making sure she had a pulse and breathing and I was trying to stop the bleeding with my shirt," Castillo said.
The victim was taken to University Hospital in extremely critical condition.
But from what an officer on the scene told Castillo it appeared she was improving.
"All we know is that she is awake now and alert, and she’s making noise, screaming and that’s good because she was not making any noise when she left (the scene)," Castillo said.
The first driver did remain at the scene, but the second driver did not stop to render aid.
Police said the woman is in her early 20s and was not in a crosswalk when she was hit.
