AUGUSTA, Ga. () – Family and friends say they want justice for 27-year-old Morgan Gray. Gray was injured in a hit-and-run on her motorcycle on May 28th. She’s in critical condition here at Doctors Hospital.  And her loved ones say someone needs to be held accountable.  

The accident occurred just before 9 pm at the intersection of Wheeler Road and Frontage Road. Since this incident, bikers have been coming and forming a prayer circle in front of her window at the Hospital.   

“We’re Morgan Strong all day,” said Dalton Taylor, a Friend of Morgan. “This little girl shouldn’t be going through this all because of a hit and run. So, it’s just pretty much just trying to get peace, get justice.”   

Summer Ivey, Morgan’s cousin, has been working to obtain information from the Richmond County Sheriff’s Office about the investigation but told me she feels she is getting the bare minimum from them.    

“We’ve asked for updates. We’ve called, no reply,” said Summer Ivey, Morgans’s Cousin. “We’ve posted on social media. We’ve been loud. We’ve been doing prayer circles, just trying to be there for her. Her son needs her; her family needs her. Her friends, obviously, and we’re just steadily going to fight.”  

The Sheriff’s Office located the vehicle and its owner. The vehicle was a company vehicle. They are collecting evidence about the driver but are unable to say anything at this time.   

“We have our suspicions, but there’s a protocol that we follow,” said Major Robbie Silas, Special Operations Richmond County Sheriff’s Office. “I have a great team that is working tirelessly, you know, around the clock, trying to find the driver of this vehicle. Again, like I said, we are collecting evidence. The vehicle has been processed, and once we get all that, and we’ll run that to the DA’s office and let them see all the stuff that we have, and then we’ll make those charges.”  

While they continue to seek answers about what happened and who is responsible, they have this solution to keep drivers on both four- and two-wheels safe. 

“Regardless of what the situation is. We’re on two wheels. Pay attention,” said Taylor.  

They have a GoFundMe for Morgan Grey. They are also hosting a fundraiser on Saturday, June 21st, at Street & Trail Motorsports from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
