ABINGDON, Va. (WJHL) — Police arrested an Abingdon woman accused of hitting a pedestrian with her vehicle following an argument on Tuesday.

Authorities say the suspect, identified as Amber Laws, and the victim had been vacuuming out their car at 930 W. Main St. when they began arguing. Laws then allegedly hit the person with the vehicle before fleeing the scene.

Police charged Laws with aggravated malicious wounding, failure to stop in an accident involving injury or death, domestic assault and battery. She remains in the Abingdon regional jail.

Virginia State Police reported that a vehicle hit a pedestrian on Westwood Drive on Tuesday. Abingdon Police confirmed with News Channel 11 that the two incidents were not related.
