A Uniontown woman is charged with attempted homicide after allegedly hitting a woman with her car Thursday afternoon.

The victim and a resident who witnessed the incident told police that the victim was hit by the car, thrown onto the hood and into the driver's side window before hitting her face on the side mirror, according to the affidavit.

Harris fled; the victim was hospitalized. She was treated at the scene for injuries to her right knee, left arm and face, police said.

Harris is charged with attempted homicide, aggravated assault, simple assault, reckless endangerment, accidents involving death or injury and summary vehicle code violations.
