(MSC News)--A Manhattan, Kansas man has been convicted on charges related to a hit and run last April that left a Horton woman seriously injured.
WIBW-TV reports a jury Thursday convicted Nicolas Blaha for both aggravated battery and failing to stop at the scene of an accident that resulted in great bodily harm.
Blaha faces up to 34-months in prison.
Authorities say the 22-year-old Blaha was driving a pickup truck that struck Amber Wilhelm early April 14, 2017 while she was crossing Bluemont Avenue in Manhattan, and then drove away.
He turned himself in to Riley County authorities last August.
