An 11-year-old boy is still recovering at a hospital after a taxi hit him and fled the scene in June.Christopher Bautista said he was riding his skateboard fast in the 1900 block of Bank Street when a yellow taxi van hit him as he came out of an alley. "I was going fast. I couldn't stop and I got hit," Christopher said. Months later, he's doing much better, but the investigation remains unsolved. It was around 6 p.m. on June 12 when the yellow taxi was seen driving down Bank Street in Upper Fells Point. Bautista was taken to Johns Hopkins Hospital in critical condition. Twelve weeks later, he sits in his Mount Washington pediatric hospital room, coloring and looking forward to the first thing he said he'll do when he goes home: "Hang out with my family." Christopher's attending physician, Dr. Stephen Nichols, told 11 News that his patient has had several surgeries -- one of them on his brain, which has healed; but he also injured his trachea. "Eventually, he's going to need reconstructive surgery to fix that, but in the meantime, we are working with his family to learn how to care for him, his tracheostomy tube, so he can go home," Nichols said. Christopher is working with a team of specialists that include speech and behavioral therapists and a psychologist. As for the taxi driver, police told 11 News they have no updates, only that the investigation is ongoing. "Just do the right thing," Christopher said.
