"Police say 57-year-old Charles Thompson was also driving westbound on Markland Avenue in a green 1996 Chevrolet pickup truck. According to the preliminary investigation, Thompson allegedly drove over the curb and on to the sidewalk, striking the 42-year-old man from behind. Thompson then allegedly fled the scene."
