Sigh. You really can't fix stupid. Looks like the white SUV was trying to leave, not actually hit the guy. Probably a stupid move but not a criminal act in my mind. It will be interesting to see what happens legally. The charges against him are pretty serious but with a decent defense attorney and that video, seems like the element of intent would be missing and the biggest charge would end up being leaving the scene of an accident. Definitely not your run of the mill incident.
