HOUSTON – Police are looking into a chilling video of a 61-year-old man walking with a cane who was hit by the driver of a white SUV.
It happened at the busy intersection of Hillcroft and High Star at 3:15 p.m. on Sunday.
The man was trying to cross Hillcroft outside the crosswalk in the middle of the street, when the Toyota 4-Runner that was headed north on Hillcroft hit that man, sending him and his cane 30 feet down the road.
