Lansford Police are still investigating a crash which injured a teenager last Thursday.

A woman driving on Route 209 struck the 14-year-old girl, who was crossing the road in front of the Jim Thorpe Neighborhood Bank branch.

The driver stopped immediately after the crash, called 911, and spoke with officers at the scene.

Lansford Police have interviewed witnesses who saw the crash, and are awaiting test results before deciding whether to file any charges or citations.

A GoFundMe was set up for the 14-year-old victim by her mother, who shared that her daughter is awake and recovering after multiple surgeries for broken bones and other internal injuries. The fundraiser is available at https://gofund.me/5427a2c8.
