DPS troopers arrested Martinez and charged her with Failure to Stop and Render Aid Resulting in Serious Bodily Injury, a third-degree felony.

The girl was wrong, wrong, wrong for not stopping. I also hope the parents are charged with something like child endangerment or something related to traffic laws for allowing their SIX YEAR OLD child onto a real road with his/her four wheeler. They were wrong also.
