On February 6, 2014 at approximately 11:38 a.m. LVMPD patrol officers were dispatched to a gas station located at 6102 West Flamingo Road to investigate reports of an auto/pedestrian accident. Arriving patrol officers located an elderly adult male suffering injuries to his legs.The victim was transported to the UMC Trauma Center.

The investigation revealed just prior to the incident the victim drove into the station lot when a gray Honda Accord pulled in front of him, causing the victim to drive around the Accord to avoid an accident. As the victim was walking from the gas pumps towards the store, the suspect vehicle drove around the parking lot and approached the victim at a high rate of speed. The vehicle stopped just short of the victim and then continued forward, striking him with the driver's side bumper. The victim fell to the ground and was run over by the suspect vehicle causing the victim to suffer significant injuries. The suspect vehicle was last seen driving out of the parking lot westbound on Flamingo Road.
