So we were late to an appointment this morning as we witnessed a narly hit and run and thus stayed to render aid to the victim and give the cops a statement. Turned out the perp hit 2 more cars before being detained via some concerned citizens whom placed her under arrest.
This was at the corner of State St. & Center St, and the pic is looking south down Center St towards Washoe County Library. The other driver took off in her car like a bat outta hell in this direction, the wrong way too (Center is 2 lane one-way here), even hit the black car on the right side (it drove to the scene after being hit to help with the main victim). The cops are parked & diverting traffic behind the wreck.
We were a car and a half+ length back when the bad driver blew the stop sign a little, then sped out like a nutter and caused the accident. Right before it happen my danger sense went off so I slowed to get more time. Good thing too. However the vic never knew what hit her, never hit the brakes & was doing 25-30 mph. Subaru safety worked like it was supposed to. Vic was taken to the hospital bleeding in a few locations and a concussion at the minimum.
There must have been a dozen folk who were also in the area and helping out.
