VALLEJO (KRON) — Two toddlers are fighting for their lives after a hit-and-run in Vallejo Sunday evening, according to Vallejo Police Department.
Around 5:47 p.m. officers responded to reports of the collision involving three pedestrians on Turner Pkwy.

A car, possibly a white Acura TL traveling westbound on Turner Pkwy, ran into the toddlers in the stroller and fled the scene.

The children and their mother were flown to a local hospital.
The little boy and girl are in critical condition.
The mother was not inured.
