A 51-year-old Racine man is charged with a hit-and-run that happened last August in the Village of Mount Pleasant. Witnesses told police Perry H. Brooks hit the 85-year-old woman on purpose after she saw him shoplifting and reported it to the staff at the Dollar Tree store. They say Brooks was shaking his fists at the woman and hit her with his car on purpose, then drove away. Investigators say surveillance video shows he never slowed down as he drove the vehicle toward the victim, knocking her down. Brooks was identified last October. It isn’t clear why charges weren’t filed for nearly five months.
