The collision happened on Thursday, March 5, when the scooter operator was traveling southbound in the right lane. A southbound vehicle struck the scooter and continued into the parking lot at 1602 W Pinhook Rd. The impact left the woman lying in the roadway.
She was then hit a second time by an unknown vehicle that fled the scene. After that impact, she remained in the right southbound lane and was struck again by a third vehicle.
The victim was taken to a local hospital, where she is listed in critical condition. The first driver, identified as 36-year-old Dakota Wagoner of Lafayette, was arrested on charges of negligent injury and operating while intoxicated after providing a breath sample of 0.225 g%BAC. The third driver provided a voluntary breath sample of 0.000 g%BAC.
The roadway was closed for a period while emergency units worked at the scene. Authorities continue to investigate the crash, and additional details may be released as they become available. Our thoughts are with the injured woman and her loved ones during this difficult time.
