A Florida woman was arrested after she allegedly struck a teenager who was crossing the road with her truck, covered her license plate and sped off.
Sarah Wright, 37, was arrested Thursday and charged with leaving the scene of a crash with injuries and driving with a suspended license.
The accident occurred just before 4 p.m. at the crossing of Gage Avenue and Noah Street in Deltona, Florida, as reported by the Volusia County Sheriff’s Office.
The 16-year-old boy, who was on his way back from Pine Ridge High School on his scooter, was hit by a black Chevrolet Silverado while crossing the street, according to the sheriff’s office.
She was booked into the Flagler County Jail on a $3,500 bond.
The teenage victim required staples for the laceration and treatment for his arm injury, but he is expected to make a full recovery.
