    Do you have any information about the pedestrian who was struck by a driver at 35th Ave SW and SW Kenyon yesterday afternoon?

      We went by after hearing the med-6 call on the scanner. Whatever was happening appeared minor. Did you hear otherwise?

        No, didn’t have any details at all, just that it happened–thanks for the note. Glad it’s minor.

Sorry, comment time is over.
