ST. LOUIS — A fight breaks out at Lincoln Park in East Saint Louis and at least four girls were hit by a speeding car.

A gray car comes barreling down the street mowing down 4 people. Four young women went flying into the air.

The twenty-something year-old female driver and a passenger quickly backed up and fled from the scene. Amazingly all of the victims walked away with minor injuries. East St. Louis Police Chief Michael Floore says detectives are diligently working the case. Police also have added more patrols near the park.

“The suspect was in a vehicle and ran over 4 girls then allegedly hit a car later on. We do have the car the driver committed the crime in we currently have a person of interest we are looking for. We have also interviewed all of the victims and witnesses out there.” Floore said.
