MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- Two young Milwaukee brothers are recovering after getting hit by a car that fled the scene Monday evening, Nov. 4. Police say they now have a suspect in custody in connection to the crash that happened near Teutonia and Florist Avenues. 

The boys' sister, Qiylah Winston, identified them as 8-year-old Noah and 5-year-old AJ. She said AJ has a broken nose and was released from the hospital Tuesday morning, but had to go back in for bleeding -- and Noah is in the ICU with head injuries. 

The boys were walking with two other children who were not hurt. They were all on their way home from a gas station near their home after playing at a park.

According to police, a 25-year-old man turned himself in. Police say they have recovered the vehicle involved and criminal charges will be presented to the District Attorney’s Office in the coming days.
