Overview
- A silver Jeep crashed into the fourth-floor elevator vestibule at Rivers Casino in Pittsburgh early Sunday, injuring two people in what police described as a hit-and-run.
- Hours after the Sunday crash, driver Jasmaine Aiken turned herself in and faces charges that include aggravated assault by vehicle and recklessly endangering another person.
- Investigators say security footage shows her hand over the center console and not on the wheel as the Jeep accelerated into the glass enclosure, then reversed and left, and they also had the license plate.
- Medics took a man with a dislocated shoulder and an open forearm fracture and a woman with head pain and minor cuts to a hospital in stable condition.
- Officials report heavy damage to the vestibule and say repair crews have started work as the police investigation continues, and Aiken told officers she mistook the gas for the brake and then panicked.
