Two people are headed to jail after police say they hit someone with their car then ran from the scene.

Matthew Harker with Tulsa Police said around 8:40 Friday evening they responded to an injury traffic accident. He said when they arrived two of the people in the car had run away and the pedestrian was under the car.

Harker said the two that ran were located nearby and taken into custody.

The driver was 37-year-old Calvin Kareem Hopewell. He was taken to jail on several complaints including leaving the scene of an injury accident, possession of marijuana and driving under the influence of drugs.

Police said the victim was walking westbound on East Tecumseh Street crossing North Lewis Avenue wearing dark clothing and the driver didn't see the person.

Harker said someone then jacked up the car and freed the victim. He said the victim suffered a broken leg and possibly some other injuries, but was talking.
