Campus Connector hit pedestrian
The Minnesota Daily reported that a Campus Connector hit a pedestrian on Friday.
The pedestrian who was crossing the street while the “don’t walk� sign was flashing suffered no major injuries after he fell to the ground and was taken by ambulance to the Fairview Health Service said University Deputy Police Chief Steve Johnson.
The Campus Connector was on route at the intersection of Washington Avenue and Union Street when it hit the pedestrian at about 2 p.m.
The pedestrian is believed not to be a student, after Johnson said that the pedestrians name was not found in the University student/staff directory.
The driver is not employed directly by the University, but subcontracted. At this point he will not be facing any direct disciplinary actions from PTS.
