As Eugene Hunter was being wheeled to an ambulance on a gurney Thursday afternoon, he handed state police a cellphone he said contained a photo of the driver who ran him down in a Hempfield parking lot.
Trooper Tristan Tappe reported in court documents that the photograph, taken moments before Hunter, 37, was struck by an SUV, was vital in the arrest of 20-year-old Bradley A. Cook in connection with the incident in the West Hempfield Townhomes complex on Lenhart Avenue.
