Double Hit-and-Run Leaves Pedestrian Dead in East Columbus

Look­ing for details on the East Broad St. hit-and-run? We got you.

Here’s the trag­ic down-low: some­one was struck by TWO cars ear­ly Fri­day morn­ing while cross­ing East Broad St. at Rich­mond Woods Dri­ve (out­side the cross­walk, FYI).

Car #1: No idea what it looked like, but it hit the per­son first in the west­bound lane and bounced them into the cen­ter turn lane. This heart­less dri­ver then dipped out of the scene.

Car #2: Described as a 2016–2018 Toy­ota Rav4, it hit the vic­tim AGAIN as they tried to crawl to safe­ty in the east­bound lane. ‍♂️ This dri­ver also vanished.

The Result? A life trag­i­cal­ly cut short. Medics pro­nounced the vic­tim dead at the scene.

Who’s on the case? Colum­bus PD’s Acci­dent Inves­ti­ga­tion Unit is on it, but they need your help! If you saw ANYTHING, speak up! #Jus­tice­For­Vic­tim
