, I Deputy Baker was dispatched to an auto accident at the intersection of Wesley Chapel Rd and Taylors Mill Rd.
Upon my arrival, I made with Ms. [VICTIM ] stating she was hit by her friend, Mr. Brandon Lowe, driving the car behind them. I asked If everyone was ok. Ms. [VICTIM ] stated she was fine. I asked Ms. [VICTIM ] if she was ok. Ms. [VICTIM ] stated her chest hurts. I had the Dispatcher to send EMS and a Wrecker to the scene. Ms. [VICTIM ] was a passenger in Ms. [VICTIM ]’s vehicle.
I did not see the other car and I asked Ms. [VICTIM ] where the other car was. Ms. [VICTIM ] stated the other car was Ms. [VICTIM ]’s car being driven by their friend, Mr. Brandon Lowe. Mr. Lowe left the scene of the accident. I notified Lt. Douglas to look for a car with front end damage. I asked Ms. [VICTIM ] what the make and model and color of her car. Ms. [VICTIM ] stated it was a 1999 Toyota Avalon. Ms. [VICTIM ] stated Mr. Lowe had been drinking from earlier tonight. I asked Ms. [VICTIM ] where was she going.

Ms. [VICTIM ] stated yes.
I tried to get some information from Ms. [VICTIM ], but she was really upset and just kept stating her chest hurts and she does not know how or where she is at.
I walked over to where Ms. [VICTIM ] was standing and asked her if she might know where Mr. Lowe went or was heading too. Ms. [VICTIM ] stated she did not know why he was even driving in the first place simply for the fact he had been drinking earlier tonight.
A few minutes later, Lt. Douglas advised he has located a car matching the description. I asked Lt. Douglas to conduct a field sobriety test.
