Police search for woman who plowed into good Samaritan, costing him his leg
Police are looking for the woman who they say crashed into a good Samaritan months ago, causing life-altering injuries, and then fled the scene. It happened on Aug. 11 in Fort Lauderdale, when the victim, Yevhenii Arsirii, saw someone pushing a truck in the 2300 block of NW 6th Street. He pulled over and learned the driver ran out of gas, so he got out to help push. “We were pushing and talking about love and compassion and then everything happened,” Arsirii told NBC6 back in August. Moments later, another driver hit Arsirii, another good Samaritan, and the truck from behind. Fort Lauderdale police said that driver got out of her car and walked away. They have identified the suspect now as Tydaijah Sade Lashone Murray, 29. Tydaijah Sade Lashone Murray, 29 Police said they had “an active arrest warrant for the suspect. However, FLPD has been unable to locate Murray since. Anyone with information on Murray’s whereabouts should contact Traffic Homicide Investigator Paul Williams at 954-828-5755 or call Broward County Crimestoppers at 954-493-TIPS (8477).” Arsirii was badly hurt in the crash, and doctors had to amputate his right leg. According to a GoFundMe, he was back to the hospital in November. The other two victims suffered only minor injuries. “I’m feeling pain, I’m feeling anxious and sadness,” Arsirii said when he spoke to NBC6 right after the crash. “I would say to this person to at least pay the bill.”
