Hi.
Yesterday I asked about this sentence and you corrected:
As she drove past his house, she noticed him run away from home.
But my teacher said it has to be ''V-ing''
As she drove past his house, she noticed him runing away from home.
Can I use both of them?

[F]running is correct
because running happen in a period of time so we should use ving
if the verb happen in a pointe of time we can use simple verb.

...she noticed him running away from home.
Notice is the verb of the clause/sentence, running isn't the verb in this case.
Its either a gerund or present participle. (Sorry, don't know which one
