A Pennsylvania driver accused of involvement in a hit-and-run accident last month claims she thought her vehicle struck a pole and not a pedestrian, a report said Thursday, citing charging documents.

"I didn't even know I hit someone," Joyce E. Smith, 62, of Harrisburg, told police, explaining why she didn't stop her vehicle, a report said. Police were called to the scene about 10:21 p.m. Dec. 21 in Swatara Township, about six miles east of Harrisburg.
