“Dear PoPville,
My husband was hit by a car going in reverse while we were walking in a crosswalk at a 4 way stop, right outside 9:30 club – the corner of V & 8th. It happened around 12:45am and the plate was Virginia.”
The driver rolled down the window to ask if he was okay- when I said no, he sped off.
Any chance you might be able to post asking for anyone to submit any info/photos/video they may have?”
If you have info please email me at [email protected] and I’ll pass on to OP. Thank you.

“Dear PoPville,
This morning, at 6:15AM, a cop car with sirens followed by 3-4 large military vehicles were heading north on 8th St SE and one of the military vehicles loudly t-boned a vehicle heading southwest on North Carolina Avenue SE. From my viewpoint, this was clearly not an intentional stopping/crashing of a vehicle.
Following the crash, a group of national guard hopped off to go see what had happened.
I’m curious if the person in the car is okay…”
