Victim didn't report traffic incident

A hit-and-run accident was reported to the Kalispell Police Department by a witness after a woman in a pickup truck clipped a pedestrian in a crosswalk on Woodland Avenue. After police tracked down the woman, she told them there were two men in the intersection being “drunk and belligerent” and that she slowed down and tried to go around them, but clipped one. The woman said she stopped to check on him, but he began yelling at her and threatening her, so she drove away because she was scared of having a physical confrontation with him. As of the time police talked to the woman, they had still not been contacted by the victim.
