A woman suffered a serious leg injury after being hit by a car Monday night and deputies are asking for help locating the person of interest.
Montgomery County Sheriff’s deputies were dispatched at 9:54 p.m. to the 3400 block of Salem Avenue on initial reports of a felonious assault, a sheriff’s office spokesperson said.
Deputies found a 29-year-old woman lying on her back near the rear of a business and her right ankle was discovered to be severed from her leg.
A preliminary investigation revealed an argument took place between the woman and her 30-year-old boyfriend. At one point, he got into his vehicle, drove into her, and knocked her to the ground.
She was taken to the hospital and is in serious condition.
Tuesday afternoon, deputies identified the person of interest in the crash as Darius Thomas. They also confirmed she was hit by a 2013 Kia Soul with Ohio registration KAP5082.
