Hillsborough County, FL (April 26, 2019) - A man was hospitalized for life-threatening injuries and a woman faces several charges following an incident that took place on Interstate 4 on Thursday, April 25th.
Around 7:00 p.m., the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office responded to the scene. Police say that Alicia Belcher was driving a vehicle with a male passenger. Belcher and the passenger got into an argument and the passenger at some point exited the vehicle. As he was crossing over several lanes of the interstate, Belcher intentionally drove her vehicle in the man's direction and collided with him. He was taken to Tampa General Hospital with life-threatening injuries.
Following an investigation, police determined that Belcher was driving under the influence. She faces a variety of charges, including DUI with serious bodily injury, leaving the scene of a crash with serious bodily injury, and aggravated battery with a deadly weapon.
