A Quapaw man has been arrested for an alleged hit-and-run incident that took place in a casino parking lot in Oklahoma.
According to authorities, the incident occurred late on Saturday night when the suspect, identified as 35-year-old John Doe, was leaving the casino in his vehicle. Eyewitnesses reported seeing Doe arguing with another patron in the parking lot before getting into his car and speeding away.
As Doe was exiting the parking lot, he allegedly struck a pedestrian who was crossing the street. The victim, a 45-year-old man, was rushed to a nearby hospital with serious injuries. Fortunately, he is expected to make a full recovery.
Security footage from the casino captured the entire incident, which led authorities to track down and apprehend Doe. He was arrested at his residence and charged with hit-and-run causing injury, reckless driving, and driving under the influence.
The Quapaw Police Department has expressed their determination to hold Doe accountable for his actions and ensure that justice is served for the victim. They are urging anyone with information regarding the incident to come forward and assist with the ongoing investigation.
