Yesterday evening in Brisbane's south, a woman was injured in a hit and run incident that was captured on CCTV footage. Victoria Chaves was riding her bike on Tarragindi Road in Moorooka when a car suddenly collided with her, causing her to fall to the ground. Shockingly, the driver of the car did not stop and instead drove away, leaving Chaves behind.
Fortunately, bystanders rushed to her aid and she was taken to the PA Hospital by ambulance. Despite her injuries being minor, Chaves was understandably shaken by the incident. Today, she is recovering at home, still trying to process what had happened to her.
In an interview with 9News, Chaves recounted the terrifying moment, saying, "When I saw the car almost on top of me, I thought it was going to stop. But it didn't, and it dragged me a few meters." The thought of being left behind by the driver who caused her harm was a chilling one for Chaves.
Witness Stephanie Lee-Harper, who saw the incident on CCTV, expressed her shock and horror at the driver's actions. "There was a lady lying on the road. And on the CCTV, we could see the car just speed off, racing away and leaving that person, possibly for dead," she said.
The police are now investigating the hit and run, and they are urging anyone with information to come forward and contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000. It is imperative that the driver responsible for this senseless act is held accountable for their actions.
