Pregnant Woman's Truck Hit At Hospital

A pregnant woman who was hospitalized with a painful injury said she was shocked to find that someone hit her truck and then left while she was inside.

Nikki Kramer said the damage caused by the hit-and-run will cost her at least $2,000.

Kramer found out Tuesday that somehow her pelvic bone split nine months into her pregnancy.

"I've been in and out of the hospital," Kramer said. "It's just, like, the most excruciating pain ever."

Her doctors at Providence St. Vincent's spent eight hours running tests and when she was finally told she could go home she went outside with her husband to find out someone had damaged their vehicle.

"Someone T-boned it and smashes into it and has no consideration for it," she said.

Kramer said she saw the surveillance video which showed a teenage driver in a newer dark blue Ford Ranger extended cab hitting her truck.

A few minutes later the video shows two other men, who may be related to the teen, show up in a Subaru Legacy and look at the damage before all three take off, she said.

"To me it's not really about the money - it's the fact that you just hit our vehicle and you drive away," Kramer said. "It's just so frustrating. How could you teach your children to just walk away from a situation like that?"

She said she hopes the man is caught so that there can be some justice to her family.

"It just, it really sucks when someone does that to you and they don't even care," Kramer said.

Anyone with information about the hit-and-run should contact Washington County deputies.
