“Dear PoPville,
A friend was walking from his home in Logan Circle this morning at around 7:30 am. He was on the North side on Vermont walking toward the circle when he was hit by a vehicle. He flipped over the hood of the car and was thrown to the ground. The car (driver) that hit him did not stop. (more…)
