State police in Indiana County said charges are pending against the driver of a pickup truck that injured a motorist on Wednesday when it hit a disabled vehicle along the side of the road and fled.

The incident happened at about 10:40 p.m. along Route 422 in White Township after a 22-year-old was experiencing mechanical problems with his Chevrolet Cheyenne and pulled onto the shoulder, according to police.

As the driver was getting back into his vehicle, a black Dodge pickup truck swerved and struck the partially opened door.

The driver was transported by ambulance to a local hospital for treatment, police said.

Police said the driver of the pickup truck was found and interviewed by investigators on Friday. Officials didn’t release any other details about the suspect.
