Sheyla Pichardo, 7, killed by hit-and-run vehicle at 62nd Street and Van Buren Avenue while walking to school in West New York, New Jersey

The mother, who was also injured, told police that a passenger got out of the vehicle and saw what had happened, and that the car then sped away.

Police are looking for a late model black Chevy Tahoe with chrome running boards and chrome hubcaps in connection to the accident.

They have located surveillance video that shows the vehicle leaving the scene and hope to get the license plate number from the video.

Pichardo was a first-grade student at School #1. Counseling is now being provided to staff and students at the school.

Johana Rosas-Alvarez, of Newark, and Fabian Calles, an undocumented immigrant, were arrested Monday night, authorities said, after police tracked the vehicle in the crash that killed Sheyla Pichardo to their home in Newark.

Funeral services for Sheyla Picardo will be held at 7 p.m. at Riotto Funeral Home & Cremation Company in Jersey City.

“Beautiful, beautiful family — mom and daughter,” said friend Glenda Butcher. “I never knew the father, but I’ve seen him … and you could tell the closeness that they had.”

Hudson County Assistant Prosecutor Leo Hernandez offered probation for Rosas-Alvarez if she pleads guilty to both third degree counts lodged against her in connection with the Feb. 29 crash.
