A 53-year-old man sustained moderate injuries after a hit-and-run crash in Chester, Plumas County, on Wednesday evening, November 27, 2024.
According to the California Highway Patrol, the incident occurred around 8:00 p.m. near 1st Avenue and Fourth Street.
Adrian R., 25, was driving a 2015 Infiniti sedan northbound on 1st Avenue when he encountered a pedestrian making arm gestures. A verbal altercation ensued, prompting a passenger from the Infiniti to chase the pedestrian east on Fourth Street.
Hearing the commotion, Pat G., a nearby resident, walked into the middle of Fourth Street.
As the pedestrian fled from the passenger, the driver pursued them in his vehicle. While turning from northbound 1st Avenue onto eastbound Fourth Street, Adrian R. struck Pat G. and fled the scene with the unidentified passenger.
A concerned citizen transported Pat G. to a nearby hospital for treatment.
CHP officers later located the driver and the Infiniti at a residence in Chester. Alcohol impairment was determined to be a factor in the crash.
The CHP Susanville office is investigating the collision.
Don’t Know What To Do After An Accident?
Your safety and rights depend on what you do next after an accident. Remember the following steps if you find yourself in one:
- Check yourself for any injuries.
- Stay on the scene, call 9-1-1, and wait for emergency responders.
- Move your vehicle to the road shoulder if safe; turn on hazard lights.
- Fully cooperate with law enforcement and stay until cleared to leave.
- Document the scene and injuries with photos and videos.
- Seek immediate medical attention.
- Contact your insurance company and find a personal injury lawyer for legal advice.
What A Lawyer Can Do For You
Many victims put off calling a lawyer even if they sustain injuries after an accident. However, lawyers can help you in many ways. They can provide you with police reports, CCTV footage, and witness statements to strengthen your case. Your attorney will also negotiate with insurance companies to get you fair compensation. The best part is that they will do all of these things for you at no upfront cost. So if you’re injured in an accident, hire a personal injury attorney to recover medical bills, car repair costs, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
