The Salt Lake Police Department is defending itself in the case of the man accused of a string of hit-and-runs in the city and questions about why Ahn Pham wasn’t arrested after the initial hit-and-run last August.

A department spokesman told KSL TV that the case was investigated as an aggravated assault. But, it was determined that there wasn’t enough probable cause to arrest Pham, despite having a license plate number, a victim, and two witness accounts of what happened.

      I didn’t post it.

      The only edit to my comment was from an auto-incorrect “gender” to “fender”

      The article says the dude tried to force a woman into his car and when he failed, ran her over. Which is pretty much my definition of “dangerous man”

            I stand by my original point, I just deleted this thread. Most hit and runs are minor accidents. People should not be jailed for them

              That’s unfortunate that you deleted everything. You should let people know just how bad a take you make.

                I didn’t delete my comments dude, just the ones on this thread. You must feel really cool insulting people on social media though. You must be a really cool person.

                  Id probably be a lot cooler if I went back and deleted comments so I don’t look as bad.
