Woman hit by own car at Ballard grocery store

A woman in Ballard was taken to the hospital yesterday after being hit by her own car, according to our news partners The Seattle Times.

The Times reports that it’s believed the woman, in her 60s, was getting out of her car when it rolled backward and ran into her outside Ballard Market. She was hit by the car, but not run over, and was taken to Harborview Medical Center with scrapes and bruises. Seattle Fire Department spokesman Kyle Moore told the Times that she was taken to the hospital largely as a precaution to be checked for possible internal injuries.
