STAFFORD COUNTY, Va. – The Stafford County Sheriff’s Office is investigating a hit and run incident that sent one man to a hospital.
A man walking along Brooke Road at 4:45 p.m. Saturday was struck in the elbow and knee by a gold Kia automobile. After the victim was struck, the driver fled the area and turned onto nearby Courthouse Road, said Stafford sheriff’s spokesman Bill Kennedy.
The victim went to a nearby church and flagged down an sheriff’s deputy who called for an ambulance to take the victim to a hospital, where he was treated and released.
Kennedy said the car’s side-view mirror and possibly the turn signal struck the man due injuries to the victim’s knee and elbow. The driver was said to have been a male wearing sunglasses.
The sheriff’s office is also looking into a breaking and entering at a home in the 1000 block of Kellogg Mill Road sometime between March 29 and Sunday afternoon. The homeowner told investigators he was out of town during that time, and someone broke into a house and stole jewelry, a laptop computer, a Play Station, pvc pipe, and alumnium wires from an air humidifier, said Kennedy.
