  • 7 years ago
Police in Bellevue, Washington, are looking for a man who took a near-three-point stance on the corner of a crosswalk and attempted to sprint to the other side of an intersection before getting clipped by a Tesla SUV, damaging its mirror.After the near-35mph hit, the man can then be seen, perhaps surprisingly, getting up, picking up his skateboard and finishing the cross.The driver stopped and told police she hit the man when he ran into the side of her SUV, a report from Seattle’s KOMO-TV said. Police described him as a “juvenile,” wearing a dark hoodie and blue backpack, according to KOMO’s report.Police are looking for the man and asking anyone with information to call 425-577-5656, and said they were required by law to talk to both parties when an accident causes damage to a car.
