New Rochelle police are on the hunt for a driver who hit a 90-year-old man and left him for dead.
Alvaro Diaz is now fighting for his life at Jacobi Medical.
Police say a 2019 or 2020 white Nissan Altima hit him last Thursday as he crossed Pelham Road.
Doctors say it's a miracle Diaz survived - he is now left with injuries to his spine, head and limbs.
His family is offering an $8,000 reward for information leading to an arrest.
Those who have information are asked to call New Rochelle police at 914-654-2220. Calls can remain anonymous.
