A Kansas City, Kansas, woman is upset over a hit-and-run incident in her neighborhood.

Jenifer Metzger, who lives near the John F. Kennedy Elementary School on 72nd Street, said a white pickup truck hit her daughter’s parked car and then took off around 7 p.m. Sunday, April 25.

A neighbor witnessed the incident, then chased after the truck, taking a video, Metzger said. According to Metzger, the neighbor stopped the woman in a parking lot and then called 911. The neighbor was told to not to pursue it, for his protection in case she was armed, according to Metzger.

Metzger said they found out the truck hit another vehicle and ran within an hour after the first incident. The truck has no license plate and no insurance, according to Metzger.

“Of course I’m very upset,” Metzger said.

She said her daughter is 19 and worked very hard to buy the car. Now she will have to pay for its repairs.

“She feels violated and angry about it,” she said.
