"They didn't stop. They didn't see how he was, they didn't try to help -- anything," George McDade of Cook County Crimestoppers said of the motorist who struck Mikulec.
The vehicle that struck the victim is believed to be up to six years old, possibly a GM van or box-style truck.
Witnesses or people with information about the case are asked to call Crimestoppers at (800) 535-STOP. There is a $1,000 reward for good information.
