A hit-and-run rampage that started in the Rivers Casino parking lot and ended at Broad and Lehigh killed one and injured 3 others, Philly police say. The driver is still on the loose.
The search is on for a driver after a rampage of hit-and-run crashes across North Philadelphia on Monday evening, one which killed a 22-year-old man at North Broad Street and Lehigh Avenue.
Roland Darrel White, from the East Germantown section of Philadelphia, was standing at the corner of Broad and Lehigh around 8:15 p.m. when he was struck and killed by a 2005 Ford Mustang driven by an unknown person, police said."I've never seen nothing like that in my life," witness Clarence Summers told NBC10."Can you imagine seeing a body flying through the air from Lehigh Avenue all the way to half way down the street? Terrible.
Upon responding to the scene, police say they found the blue Mustang -- unoccupied with a busted windshield and smashed front end -- near the intersection of Broad Street and Indiana Avenue, roughly a quarter of a mile from where White was killed. Philadelphia Police say that before the hit-and-run killing, the driver of the Mustang was involved in two other hit-and-run incidents, both leaving victims injured.
The first happened in the parking lot of Rivers Casino on Delaware Avenue around 8 p.m., police say. The driver was behaving erratically near the casino when they struck a 51-year-old man on a grey electric scooter, knocking him to the pavement and shattering his leg. The victim is in stable condition at a Center City hospital, police say.
