COBB COUNTY, Ga. — Police want to find the person behind a terrible hit-and-run crash.
Channel 2 Action News showed you the mess on I-285 in Sandy Springs last week. Two people are still in the hospital.
Channel 2's Rikki Klaus visited the Brookhaven restaurant where one of the victims, Jeannie Smithwick would have been on Wednesday night, but she's one of the victims in serious condition at the hospital.
"A lot of customers come here because of her. They love her," her boss, Bill Brown, told Klaus.
Some have donated generously to her GoFundMe campaign that Brown set up after the crash.
Smithwick was driving on I-285 near Northside Drive when she got in a fiery crash. A truck driver stopped to help. Sandy Springs police say a 2009 Vista blue Mustang like this hit all three drivers and sped off.
"We’re all looking forward to the day she walks back in here. It’s terrible," Brown said.

Brown said Smithwick had surgery this week for a new brain bleed and doctors had to remove her spleen and place rods in her bones.
“She really hasn’t woken up yet. I’m in contact with her family. As you can imagine, they’re beside themselves because not only is their beloved daughter laying in a hospital bed on a breathing machine, but the person responsible has taken off. Bad karma," Brown said.
Everyone Klaus has spoken with since last week has raved about how kind and loving Smithwick is.
