A Tampa city worker is under arrest for allegedly hitting a teenager while driving under the influence of alcohol. Both the Tampa Tribune and St. Pete Times are carrying stories about 47-year-old Richard Anthony Stephens, who according to both newspapers is a City of Tampa employee with the public works department.
There are conflicting reports on the age of the victim but all reports seem to concur that the teenager is most likely going to recover from the drunk driving accident. Camena Wiltshire was walking on the side of 17th Street with a friend when she was allegedly hit by Stephens’ car. She was thrown against the windshield and taken to St. Joseph’s hospital. Her injuries were listed as non-life threatening.
