Argument in Sidney results in pedestrian being hit by a car

News

May 8th, 2014 by Ric Hanson

An argument between two men Wednesday evening in Fremont County resulted in one person being transported to the hospital after being hit by a car. The Fremont County Sheriff’s Office says 25-year old Jeffrey Fuller, of Sidney, was transported by Sidney Rescue to the hospital, for treatment of non-life threatening injuries.

Officials report deputies were called to 2755 Knox Road, near Sidney, at around 7:40-p.m. after they received word a pedestrian had been hit by a vehicle. An investigation determined an argument had taken place between Jeffrey Fuller, and 19-year old Alexander Fuller, of Sidney. During the argument, Alexander Fuller allegedly hit Jeffrey Fuller with his vehicle before fleeing the scene. Alexander contacted law enforcement shortly after the initial call about the incident was received.

The investigation showed Alexander was NOT under the influence of alcohol. Charges are pending completion of the investigation. Sheriff’s officials were assisted at the scene by officers with the Sidney Police Dept. and Sidney Fire and Rescue.
