(Updated 4:50 p.m.) It’s been a busy week in Alexandria, with police arresting a suspect in an attempted abduction and on the hunt for a driver after a hit-and-run.

The driver of a yellow Penske truck struck a 15-year-old boy in the Braddock neighborhood earlier this week and nearly ran over several other children at the nearby George Washington Middle School. Javone Scott, the juvenile struck by the truck, spoke to ABC7 yesterday and said he was running away when the truck hit him from behind.
