COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa [KETV] — A Council Bluffs native and veteran remains in the hospital in critical condition after a driver hit him in the parking lot of a gas station on Wednesday. Council Bluffs police are investigating the hit-and-run that has left 68-year-old Thomas Sayles with several injuries.

They said it was shocking when they received the news of what had happened, and they did not find out until Thursday morning, about 12 hours after the hit-and-run.
