A Florida woman who “became upset” when a man was “in the way” of her car hit and injured the man with her vehicle before fleeing the scene, police said.
According to the Daytona Beach News-Journal, Amanda Weaver, 28, of DeLand, was allegedly speeding in her silver Kia on Monday when she hit 19-year-old Anderson Cantres from Deltona. A man walking with Cantres at the time of the incident said Weaver became frustrated she had to wait for a pickup truck to back up, screaming profanities at the driver before speeding around the truck and toward Cantres.
Weaver’s Kia Soul struck Cantres before hitting the curb, damaging the front passenger side tire and continuing down the road, police said. Police arrived at the scene to find Cantres disoriented and suffering from multiple cuts and scratches to his body, according to the News-Journal. He was taken to an area hospital.
Investigating officers were told Weaver’s mother lived nearby and arrived at the home to find the car parked in front with a flat front tire and a spare tire sitting out.
Weaver admitted to hitting Cantres and not having any intention of calling officers, telling officers she did not mean to hit him, according to a report obtained by the News-Journal. After her arrest, police say Weaver told them she “became upset because [Cantres] was in the way.”
Weaver was charged with leaving the scene of a crash with injury and held in Volusia County Jail on $1,000 bond.

Her name is Amanda. Lots of crazies in Florida of all stripes.
Argentinian. I might have known.
Oh I looked at the picture. I stand corrected.
Kind of spooky how you knew that.
Pedestrian must have been racist to get in her way like that!!
Well, if she did not mean to hit him...
She dindu nuffin’ , Did I guess right?
Actually, since this happened in Palm Beach, I am surprised. Normally, a story like this would be about a 90 year old who should have had her license pulled 10 years ago.
“held in Volusia County Jail on $1,000 bond”
Doesn’t that mean only $100 to bail out?
It was Daytona Beach.
Black!! Reminds me of that black woman that hit a guy and the guy was stuck in his windshield....she drove home ans LEFT him to DIE in her windshield!!
I suppose attempted murder was out of the question?
He’s psychic!!
Is that her moochelle face? It’s a good imitation.
We have problems in the black culture. In this case we see a low tolerance for an everyday life event, causing frustration. And combined with poor impulse control, lack of regard for others, an excuse that she didn’t mean to hit him, a feeling that her need to get somewhere overrode safe driving — all are accidents waiting to happen.
“she had to wait for a pickup truck to back up”
A WHITE picku-up truck, no doubt...
