House Democrat Taken to Hospital After Hit-and-Run Car Crash

Toledo police are hunting for a hit-and-run driver who fled the scene of a two-vehicle collision Sunday that sent longtime Democratic Rep. Marcy Kaptur and her campaign manager to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

As of Monday morning, the suspect remains at large.

The crash occurred at approximately 10:48 a.m. local time at the intersection of North Detroit Avenue and Central Avenue in Toledo.

According to Toledo Police Department officials, Kaptur, 80, was a passenger in a black Ford Bronco driven northbound by her 26-year-old campaign manager, Kegan Zimmermann.

A silver sedan traveling southbound on Detroit Avenue “came into the path” of their vehicle, causing the collision.

Both occupants were transported to St. Vincent’s Medical Center for treatment of undisclosed but non-serious injuries.
