Shortly after 4:30pm Wednesday afternoon a moped was struck by a car at the intersection of Poplar and Dewey Street in Bridgeport. Witnesses tell me that the moped swerved wide to avoid being hit by another car that left the scene and he ran into the silver car in the process. The witness also said the man was under the car for a period of time which is why police were adamant about him being check by paramedics. Police are investigating.
