Their car was sent rolling after the collision.
"The only thing in my head was, 'Get the kids out of the car,'" said Veronica Blythe, the mother of the two kids.
The family crawled through the car's sunroof one by one as it filled with smoke before bursting into flames."I don't know how they can walk around and go about their day-to-day life knowing what they did to us and what could have happened. They don't know that we're OK. They were gone before any of us got out of the car," Blythe said.
The bruise on Blythe's leg and burn marks on her stomach from the seat belt is the extent of her injuries, she said. Her two kids were unharmed. "We could care less about the car, as long as all of our family was able to go home that night and just hang out at home like it was any other night," said Blythe.According to Indianapolis police, there have been 4,813 hit-and-run crashes so far this year involving both other vehicles and people. The department says the number this year is higher than last year's at 4,754.
