A 32-year-old woman with a shaky driving record hit an Amish buggy in southern Minnesota and left the scene, while seven children and their parents occupying the horse-drawn carriage suffered injuries of varying degrees, according to charges filed Tuesday.

Brittany N. Edgar of Spring Valley, Minn., was charged in Fillmore County District Court with two counts of criminal vehicular operation, leaving the scene of a crash, careless driving and two counts related to failure to carry proof of insurance stemming from the Feb. 16 collision.

Edgar was charged by summons and is scheduled to appear in court May 20. A message was left with Edgar seeking her response to the allegations. Court records do not list an attorney.
