Police make an arrest in a brutal hit and run in Bayou Vista.
It was all caught on tape.
Thibodaux police arrested 22-year-old Jacob Landry on a warrant for the St. Mary Parish Sheriff's Office.
Landry is accused of striking two women while driving a car in a Wal-Mart parking lot, then taking off.
St. Mary Parish deputies say more arrests are expected.

One of the women hit, 60-year-old Palma Dehart, was recovering in the hospital for nearly a week. Now, she's out and back at home- but the day she walked that cross-walk keeps replaying in her mind.
