A woman in Wisconsin was arrested after the authorities accused her of hitting two children who were on a minibike with her vehicle and driving away.
Early in the evening on October 18, an 11-year-old male and an 8-year-old female were riding a minibike in The Village of Lisbon. According to reports, they were at an intersection when a vehicle crashed into them. The driver was later identified as a 26-year-old woman who had only been living in the state for a short time. She reportedly initially kept driving, leaving the youngsters injured in the road, and people who lived in the area left their homes to help the kids. Approximately two minutes later, the driver came back.
The authorities were notified, and multiple agencies went to the scene to assist. The girl did not appear to have sustained serious injuries, but the boy needed immediate medical attention. Both children were taken to a local hospital for treatment.
