A hit-and-run in Anaheim left a 3-year-old girl dead Wednesday evening, authorities said.
The girl and her mother were crossing Gilbert Street between Cerritos Avenue and Ball Street around 5:58 p.m. when a vehicle struck the pair, killing the young girl, according to California Highway Patrol officials.
The girl was taken to UCI Medical Center, where she was pronounced dead, according to the Orange County coroner's office.
The vehicle, which was recovered near the scene, was reported stolen out of Stanton earlier Wednesday.
