23-year-old female hit by car on 600 N 600 E

At about 9 p.m. on Tuesday, a 23-year-old female walking north was hit by a car driven by an 18-year-old female on 600 N. 600 E. in Logan, near the bottom of Old Main Hill.

Eyewitness Tylen Smith said he heard someone crying outside his apartment sometime after 9 p.m. When he went to investigate further he found a woman lying face down on the pavement in the street. Smith said the woman was bleeding from her head.

The driver of the vehicle who had hit the woman was sitting nearby crying while one of the four bystanders at the scene called 911. Smith said the girl lying in the road was still conscious, but bystanders urged her to lie still. Within three minutes of the 911 call, an ambulance and four police officers showed up at the scene.

 Officer Graves looks over his report as he talks to witnesses about the accident.

The victim was taken to a hospital in Logan and is expected to make a full recovery soon.
