ALEXANDRIA, La. - Three arrests were made in the hit and run that injured two children in Alexandria on Wednesday morning.
According to APD, 17-year-old Kendrick Dixon, Jr. and 18-year-old Santana Sanders of Alexandria were arrested in connection to the incident.
On Thursday afternoon, police arrested 22-year-old Kendrick Pearson and he was formally charged.

Dixon was charged with hit and run, unauthorized use of a vehicle and no driver's license. Sanders was charged with one count of accessory.
The schoolchildren were taken to the hospital and have since been released with minor injuries.
