WINCHESTER, Ky. (WKYT) - A man had to be rushed to the hospital with serious injuries after being hit by a car in a neighborhood. The incident happened just after 9 Tuesday evening outside an apartment building on Oxford Drive.

People living inside the apartment complex close to the incident were shook up by the event.

"I don't have a car and I don't have a license. And with it being right at my doorstep. That's also something else that's very traumatizing to me," says Jeffrey Arvin, who lives inside the complex.
