Robert Novak cited for hitting pedestrian
WASHINGTON (AP) - July 23, 2008 Witnesses say the collision occurred about 10 a.m. Wednesday as
the 77-year-old Novak was traveling near K Street in his black
Chevrolet Corvette.
D.C. fire department spokesman Alan Etter said the victim was
taken to George Washington University hospital with minor injuries.
Novak tells WJLA-TV he was cited for failing to yield the right
of way. He says he didn't realize what happened and continued
driving until a bicyclist stopped him.
David Bono, the bicyclist who witnessed the incident, told The
Associated Press that the pedestrian was hit in a crosswalk and was
splayed across Novak's windshield.
