(YEADON, Pa. - June 24, 2011 (WPVI) - The driver suspected in the Delaware County hit-and-run that was caught on surveillance video has turned herself in.
Wilaisha Rankins, 32, surrendered to Yeadon Police on Friday afternoon accompanied by another woman, who was not immediately identified.
When Action News asked Rankins why she drove away after the crash, that other woman said "she was afraid."
That woman also disputed earlier reports that Rankins is a nurse.
Police say Rankins was behind the wheel of a car that slammed into a 7-Eleven clerk, knocking him through a storefront window.
Surveillance cameras captured the dramatic footage back on June 9th at around 10:30 p.m. The car, allegedly driven by Rankins, is shown crashing into a man and pushing him into the 7-Eleven store on Church Lane in Yeadon, Pa.
Ultimately, a male passenger and the driver also flee with no one rendering aid to the man who was run over. Read more »
