YORK, Pa. — Police have arrested the suspect in a hit-and-run crash that injured a York County woman in August.

The crash occurred on Carlisle Road in front of Delco Plaza, police said.
The victim, though injured, was conscious and able to answer questions when police arrived, authorities said. She reported that the vehicle that struck her fled from the scene, dragging her scooter behind it.
