Sounds like there's more to the story right here; either the witness knew the people involved, or there ws some action on the driver's part that made it obviously intentional.SC1903A3 wrote:A witness told police that a man in a maroon pickup purposely struck down the woman and then fled the scene.
Note that it doesn't say when he fired; he may have seen whatever actions led up to the assault, prepared himself, and fired before the woman was actually struck, or he may have seen the driver trying to back up and "finish the job" or go after another target.The witness, who has a license to carry a handgun, fired a shot at the driver, police said.
There's definitely a lot of information missing here.
