On February 4, 2008, Patrick Menedez, a pedestrian, was Hit by a Drunk Driver in Olympia, Washington Submitted by tswanson on Wed, 02/06/2008 - 2:52pm.
Patrick Menendez works as a support technician at ReachONE Internet. On his way home from work Monday evening February 4th, he got off the city bus and was then struck by a drunken driver in a Ford F-150 pickup truck about 8:15 pm. The driver of the pickup truck did not stop. Fortunately, a concerned driver followed the truck to downtown Olympia -- calling the police -- where the police arrested the man and took him to St. Peter's Hospital to assess his level of drunkenness. The incident happened at Pacific Avenue near Sawyer Street in Olympia. If you have information regarding this hit and run, you are asked to contact Olympia police at 360-753-8300. Patrick suffered a fracture in his hip, his left leg is broken in several places and his right knee was mangled. For more information about the incident, please see http://HelpPatrickandMary.com  |
