Information from WYSH Radio
A Clinton man was struck by a car late Friday afternoon in Clinton.
The Clinton Police Department reports that 30-year-old Carl Bunch had been parked in one of the angled spaces on West Broad Street at the Anderson County Courthouse at around 5 p.m. Friday. Bunch was standing at the rear of his vehicle putting his new license plate on when a car driven by a 16-year-old girl traveling along Broad Street swerved out of its lane and hit Bunch and his car’s bumper.
Bunch was taken to nearby Lakefront Park, where he was flown by a Lifestar medical helicopter to the University of Tennessee Medical Center in Knoxville.
At last check, word on his condition was not available. No citations were issued, although the police report indicates that the girl may have been distracted by her cell phone.
