Late one night, a terrible accident happened that shocked many people. A man, who police say was driving drunk, hit a woman on the street. But what made this even worse was what he did next—he kicked her and dragged her body out of the road.
What Happened?
The crash took place in a busy part of town near a crosswalk. Witnesses said the man was driving fast when he hit the woman. Instead of stopping or calling for help, he dragged her body along the street. Then, he got out of his car and kicked her. After that, he pulled her body off the road.
People who saw this said it was scary and hard to believe. Many ran over to try to help once the driver left, but the woman was already badly hurt. Emergency workers came quickly, but sadly, she was declared dead at the scene.
The police are investigating.
Police are now trying to find the driver and are treating this as a serious crime. He could be charged with driving drunk, causing death, and leaving the scene of the accident. They are looking at videos from nearby cameras and asking witnesses to share what they saw.
The city’s mayor spoke out, saying this was not just a careless accident but an act of cruelty. He asked anyone who saw what happened or has videos to come forward and help catch the driver.
The Community Is Shocked
People living nearby are very upset and scared. One local shop owner said, “I can’t believe someone could be so heartless to kick a person after hitting them.” Many neighbors want better street lights and more police to keep everyone safe.
Some groups in the community are raising money to improve safety in that area. Religious leaders also asked people to support victims of accidents and to be kinder to those who suffer.
Why This Matters
Drunk driving is already very dangerous, but acting so cruelly after hurting someone is even worse. This case reminds us how important it is to stop drunk driving and treat people with care and respect.
Police hope that with help from the community, they will soon find the driver and bring him to justice.
