7-Eleven Clerk Hit By Irate Customer's Car: Police

PASADENA, MD — A 7-Eleven store employee in Pasadena suffered a broken arm after he was hit by a car driven by an irate customer, according to Anne Arundel County Police. Ryan Lamar Jenkins, 39, of the 8000 block of East Riverside Drive in Pasadena, was arrested after the dust-up.

Police were called shortly after 2 p.m. Wednesday to the 7-Eleven store at 8930 Fort Smallwood Road in Pasadena. The store clerk told officers he argued with Jenkins over the price of cigarettes and the customer became disorderly. When the clerk went outside to get the suspect’s tag number, he said Jenkins intentionally drove the vehicle onto the sidewalk and struck the clerk. The driver then fled the area in his vehicle.

Officers went to Jenkins' residence, found the vehicle parked there, and arrested Jenkins. The clerk suffered a broken arm and was taken to Maryland Shock Trauma for treatment.
