A quiet evening dog walk in Antelope turned violent last Saturday when a driver slammed into two pedestrians and then sped off, leaving both with serious injuries and a neighborhood on edge. The crash was captured on a home security camera, and neighbors quickly began sharing the footage as investigators went door to door looking for clues about the car and the person behind the wheel.
