San Andreas, CA — 20 year old Dustin Falls of Copperopolis suffered minor injuries Thursday evening at 6:20 when he was hit by a vehicle driven by 70 year old Ken Buller of Avery on Hwy 4 west of Lakemont Drive.

Falls had just exited a Calaveras Transit bus which had stopped along the south shoulder of Hwy 4 west of Lakemont Drive. According to the CHP report Falls intended to cross both lanes of Hwy 4 but he failed to observe Mr. Buller who was driving eastbound on Hwy 4 at approximately 40mph. The right front of Buller´s 1998 Cadillac struck Falls who was thrown into the air.

He was transported to a Modesto hospital where he was released after being treated for minor injuries.
