After being struck by a hit-and-run driver, Kalene Larson was sent to the ER with head injuries and her car was totaled. She's asking the community to be on the lookout for the man who hit her.
Kalene Larson was coming down N.W. Market Street around 8 p.m. on January 14 when she was struck by a car going at least 35 mph. The car was totaled and Larson was rushed to the ER with head injuries.
Larson says the car was a 1998 dark green four-door Chevy Tahoe and the driver was caucasian, in his early 30s with dark hair and chin strap facial hair.
" was aggressively driving and seemed drunk because he was swerving and tailing my car," Larson said. "He struck the car intentionally, going 35mph, side swiping the entire left side [of my and then sped off."
Two pedestrians witnesses the event and a police report was filed.
"Clearly he is unsafe and should go to jail. If anyone sees a late 90's dark green Tahoe with dark blue paint or damages to the right front side, please contact police," said Larson. "I would love it if someone saw his car and wrote in because he could get charged with intentional manslaughter and I want him off the road so he doesn't continue this."
