ALIQUIPPA (KDKA) – Police say a Beaver County woman may have thwarted a robbery, by running over a suspect with her car.
It happened in the 2100 block of McMinn Street in Aliquippa.
Aliquippa police say a witness saw Cameron White walking down a street carrying what appeared to be a sawed off shotgun.
She called police, but noticed that White was heading in the direction of a group of children.
Police say she feared White was going to shoot the children, so she ran over him with her car.
White was taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
Police believe he was actually going to rob the Circle K mini-mart down the road and that she may have prevented the robbery.
They say White was carrying an airsoft pellet gun which had been sawed off to look like a shotgun, and the orange tip had been taken off.
The Beaver County District Attorney says they are not going to charge her with running White over.
