CLARKE COUNTY, Va. -- Authorities are asking for the public's help to identify the driver said hit a woman and a child in a McDonald's parking lot in northwestern Virginia Saturday morning.
Troopers were called to the McDonald's at the intersection of Route 340 and Route 50 in Clarke County at 10:45 a.m., according to Sgt. Brent W. Coffey with Virginia State Police.
A woman in a maroon or red-colored SUV was backing out of a parking spot when her vehicle hit a 42-year-old woman and a 2-year-old boy, Coffey said.
The pair suffered minor injuries and were treated at the scene, according to Coffey.
