A pedestrian was involved in a hit-and-run crash in Orange County, Florida on Sunday evening, according to the Florida Highway Patrol. The victim was walking on the side of the road when they were hit by a vehicle and left injured on the scene. The pedestrian was then transported to a nearby hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. The driver of the vehicle fled the scene and authorities are currently searching for the individual responsible.
The Florida Highway Patrol is asking for any information from the public in order to help with the investigation. Hit-and-run crashes can be particularly frustrating for authorities, as they often result in fewer leads and a lower likelihood of finding the responsible party.
In these cases, it is important for any witnesses or individuals with information to come forward and assist in the investigation. The victim in this incident is expected to recover from their injuries, but the search for the responsible driver continues.
If any nearby person or vehicle were injured/damaged as a result of the driver’s negligence, there would likely be a valid personal injury claim.
