A Harrisburg woman faces a felony charge after police said she crashed her car into a pedestrian last month in Swatara Township before fleeing the scene.

Joyce E. Smith, 62, is faces a felony charge of accidents involving death or personal injury, as well as lesser charges of failure to stop and give aid and failure to notify police of an accident, online court documents show.

Swatara Township police Lt. Tom Stauffer said officers were called about 10:21 p.m. Dec. 21 to the intersection of Eisenhower Boulevard and Lindle Road, where a crash was reported.

Stauffer said an 18-year-old woman was crossing the road when she was struck.

“It’s pretty normal to see people trying to cross the road,” he said of that area.

According to charging documents, the woman was struck in Eisenhower Boulevard’s northbound lane, and the driver of the vehicle that struck her then left the scene.

At the scene, police were able to find parts of the vehicle, including parts of a passenger side mirror and a broken plastic wheel well cover, according to the charging documents.

The mirror, police said, was blue, and it was determined that it came from a 2004 or 2005 Chevrolet Aveo.

A vehicle matching that description was found in a driveway on Rutherford Street, and officers saw that it was damaged in a way considered consistent with the hit-and-run crash, police said.

Smith was identified as the vehicle’s owner, police said.

Police said the vehicle was towed from the driveway, and officers spoke with Smith, who said, “I didn’t even know I hit someone.”

A search warrant was used to further examine the vehicle, and it was found that the broken pieces at the crash scene matched Smith’s Aveo, police said.

In a later conversation with police Smith said she did not stop her vehicle because she thought she hit a pole, according to the charging documents.

Police said the 18-year-old woman was hospitalized after the crash with a head injury and trauma to one of her legs and her back.

“She suffered cuts and abrasions on her face and right leg,” police said.

Online court documents show Smith was arraigned on her charges Jan. 7, and she is scheduled to appear for a preliminary hearing at 9 a.m. Feb. 25 before Magisterial District Judge Michael J. Smith.
