Truck Driver Runs Over Woman, Steals Bingo Money

 

WASHINGTON, Pa. —

A woman was taken to the hospital after being run down for her bingo money.

Police said a truck drove onto the sidewalk and hit the woman outside of the Jessop Club in Washington Friday night.

The driver allegedly got out of the vehicle and stole a briefcase full of money that the victim's mother was carrying.

She is one of the game's organizers and was leaving the club with all of the money raised at the event.

The victim's brother said he is fed up.

"It should be safe to walk out of a place and have money . . . and not get run over by a vehicle coming down Jefferson Avenue," said Jeff Savage.

Police are looking for a white truck with a tool box in the back.
