Family Of Woman Run Down In Fells Point Say She's On The Road To Recovery

BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- The family of Jill Boram, the woman run over in Fells Point early Saturday morning, say she continues to slowly improve following surgery Monday.

In a thank you letter, the families of Jill and her husband CJ say they have been showered with overwhelming support following the accident that left Jill badly injured.

"The incredible kindness from the community reminds us we are not alone in this trauma and we are so grateful," her family says.

As of Tuesday at noon, more than $52,000 has been raised for Jill's recovery on her Go Fund Me page.

"Jill's condition continues to slowly improve and we ask that you please continue to keep her, CJ and the families in your prayers. The road to her recovery is long but attainable," the family said.

On Saturday, police say the driver Orlando Redd got into a minivan to leave Fells Point after a fight. As he was attempting to leave, others tried to stop him.

Redd then rammed his car into other vehicles and then drove up onto a sidewalk, hitting buildings and Jill.

The entire event was captured on camera.

Redd is now being held on bond in the case and police believe alcohol may have a been a factor. They continue to investigate the incident.
