Police said on Sept. 9, the driver of a vehicle hit a pedestrian near the Walmart at IH-35 & SH-45.
The victim was originally in critical condition but is now stable.
This incident stemmed from a domestic dispute. The driver, 24-year-old Andrea Estwick, was arrested on Sept. 20 for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and booked into the Williamson County Jail.
According to the affidavit, Estwick told police she accidentally ran over the victim.
The paperwork says the suspect and victim were in a relationship and recently decided to separate.
On their way home after drinking in downtown Austin, Estwick said the victim was hungry, so they turned into a gas station. She said he started to argue, got out of the car, and started to walk towards the Frontage Road.
According to the affidavit, Estwick said she got back in her car to catch up with him and stop him from walking onto the road. She said as she got close, he stepped in front of the car and got hit by it. She said she got out to help him into the car.
