Filing: Minnesotan who hit Amish buggy and left injured kids behind has troubling driving record

The woman initially told a sheriff's deputy that she hit a deer

The motorist who hit an Amish buggy last week in southern Minnesota, fled the scene and left injured children behind has been identified as a 32-year-old woman with a troubling driving history.

The collision about 10 p.m. Friday on County Road 1 near Spring Valley injured six of the horse-drawn buggy's nine occupants, two of them seriously, according to a search warrant affidavit filed Monday by the Fillmore County Sheriff's Office that asked a judge for permission to collect evidence from the driver's car and her cellphone.

Brittany Nicole Edgar of Kasson, Minn., was soon pulled over 6 miles south of the crash scene by a sheriff's deputy who saw a car with severe front-end damage, one headlight out and taillights not illuminated, the filing read.
