A call of a person seen on the hood of a moving sedan brought police to the intersection of Anderson Street and Vanderbeck Place shortly after 11 a.m. Sunday, Feb. 20, Capt. Darrin DeWitt said.
Officers found the 39-year-old victim, who told them a man whom she identified only as “Jazz” drove directly at her and hit her with his car during an argument, DeWitt said.
She landed on the hood, she said, then rolled off and landed in the street near the curb as he kept going, the captain said.
The silver-colored sedan was last seen heading north on Linden Street from Anderson Street, he said.
The victim -- who was treated at the scene for cuts and scrapes on her hands, elbows and ankle – refused to cooperate, DeWitt said.
