Julien was taken to Boston Medical Center, where she later died.

She leaves behind a 2-year-old son.

"My grandson… will never see his mother again. Only way he's gonna see his mother again is if they bring him to the funeral. That's the only way," said Kevin McGee, the grandfather of Julien's son.

Police are looking for the driver of that black Jeep Liberty.

Anyone with information is asked to call police.
