A Butler man was pushed several feet into a nearby parked car after being struck by a vehicle Saturday afternoon, Jan. 17, according to a neighbor who spoke with the Butler Eagle on Monday afternoon.

Jeff Goeppner, of Butler, said his neighbor, James Perry, was seriously injured in the 2 p.m. crash, which left a dent in Goeppner’s vehicle.

According to Butler County Emergency Services dispatch reports, a man was struck by a vehicle Saturday near the intersection of East Brady and North Monroe streets and flown from Butler Memorial Hospital to a Pittsburgh hospital following the incident.

Emergency crews were dispatched at 2:02 p.m. to the incident. Crews were on the scene for about 14 minutes, according to computer-aided dispatch reports.

No charges had been filed in the incident Monday afternoon.

Goeppner said Butler City police knocked on his door around 2:30 p.m. Saturday to explain the dent in his car from the crash.

Goeppner, who lives across the alley from Perry on East Brady Street, said his neighbor was struck by a vehicle and was knocked eight to 10 feet into his car, which caused the dent.

Goeppner said Perry is a veteran, and he occasionally sees him loading poles into his car to go fishing with his friends. Goeppner said another neighbor had spoken with Perry’s family and reported he’s recovering from one broken leg.

A GoFundMe started by his daughter, Amelia Perry, said James Perry was flown to UPMC Presbyterian Hospital had a surgical nail placed in one of his legs.

The GoFundMe page called the crash a “hit and run.”

Responding agencies included Butler City police, Butler Bureau of Fire. StatMed Evac flew the man from Butler Memorial Hospital.

As of 1:50 p.m. Monday, Butler City Police said more information will be released at a later time.
