Murfreesboro, TN - There was a two-car hit and run crash around 2:40AM early Saturday (10/26/2024) morning on East Clark Blvd. Police report that one of the drivers fled-the-scene on foot, but was later arrested. That suspect is charged with DUI, leaving the scene, failure to provide immediate notice, and possession of a handgun with under the influence.
Amazingly only minor injuries were received. I say "amazing", because three utility poles were knocked down in the pre-dawn crash, along with damage to a fire hydrant.
Middle Tennessee Electric crews were quickly repairing the lines and restoring the poles alone E. Clark Boulevard.
