GTV NEWS: Driver hits 2 people on purpose

Two people were intentionally hit by a truck after a fight on Grand Rapids' northeast side, police said, then the driver left the scene.

The incident happened in the 1200 block of Kelsey St. NE at around 1 a.m., investigators say.

They believe the driver was connected to a fight in the area before he got behind the wheel of the truck.

The victims' injuries are not life-threatening.

Grand Rapids Police arrested a 21-year-old suspect at his home but did not release his identity Saturday because he had not been formally charged.

24 Hour News 8 was able to confirm that David Lee Gaitan was arrested in the incident and is expected to be charged on Monday.
