Kayla Mann
MILWAUKEE - Kayla Mann, 31, of Milwaukee, is charged with hit-and-run causing injury after prosecutors say she hit a garbage worker Monday, May 15 near 61st and Chambers.
According to a criminal complaint, the garbage worker suffered a fractured foot after being hit by a vehicle driven by Mann, who said her license "might be" suspended.
A search of DOT records revealed that it was, in fact, suspended, and she was notified in January of that suspended status.
Police arrested Mann at her home after she admitted to hitting the man, the complaint says. She said "she believed she had enough space" but did not.
