SUV hits 6 migrant workers in N.C. Walmart parking lot, apparently on purpose, then flees, police say

Six migrant workers were injured in what appeared to be an intentional hit-and-run in Lincolnton, North Carolina, police said Sunday.

The migrants were hit by a black SUV outside a Walmart around 1:17 p.m. Sunday, the Lincolnton Police Department said. They were taken to a local hospital and none of their injuries appeared to be life-threatening, according to police. 

Police could not immediately identify the vehicle or the driver, who was described as an older white male. Police said a motive was also still under investigation.
