. This tragedy in Auburn Gresham is a sobering reminder of how quickly our lives can be taken away by senseless violence. The fact that the driver of the SUV just walked away from an accident, leaving two innocent people fighting for their lives? It's just heartbreaking 
. I'm trying to understand why someone would prioritize not seeking medical help over helping those in need 
. But the more I think about it, the more questions I have... like what was going through that person's mind when they made that choice? Was it panic? Fear? Something else entirely? 
. Let's hope that the police investigation will lead to some answers and justice for the victims and their families 
. My heart goes out to everyone affected by this tragedy 
.
It's heartbreaking to see a young woman's life cut short like this, and everyone's thoughts are with her family & friends right now... The driver of the SUV in question refusing medical help is also raising many questions about what led them to make that choice 
This city is like a war zone. I'm so sad for that young woman's family... her life was cut short, can you even imagine? 
And the fact that the driver of the SUV just left their passenger to die is just crazy... what were they thinking?! 
. and what's with the driver of the SUV just walkin away from the scene? that's some messed up prioritizin' 
... it's not like they're even tryna help the person who got hurt or anythin'... i hope the guy who got shot is okay, but what about the family of the girl who got killed? that's just harsh 
another senseless shooting in chicago 
it's just not fair. and what's even crazier is that the guy who was driving the SUV just drove off without helping his victims 
hope the guy survives and doesn't become a victim of this chaotic system 
RIP to the young woman 
it's like we're not doing enough as a society to prevent these tragedies from happening in the first place... we need to come together and find real solutions, not just more empty promises 
what's going on with our gun laws? are we really that unwilling to take action to keep ourselves safe? 
. We need to do better as a community to prevent these types of incidents from happening in the first place 
.
. This shooting in Auburn Gresham is just heartbreaking. You've gotta feel for that woman's family & friends who are left to pick up the pieces of their lives. And what's with the driver who didn't want to help? Like, isn't that what people do when they get hurt?! 
It's like, frustrating at best.
no words can describe the pain & sadness felt by those who knew her 
? the driver who chose not to seek medical attention for their injuries is a hard one to understand... was it fear, ignorance or just plain old selfishness?
