Lt. Robert Huish, a Navy pilot stationed at NAS Jacksonville was severely injured when a car clipped his bicycle as he was riding on East Coast Drive in Atlantic Beach. The driver of the white or cream SUV is unknown because the individual fled the scene. Huish, however, was transported to Shands of Jacksonville where he is in a drug-induced coma.
Lt. Robert Huish has only been at NAS Jacksonville since July, when he returned from a seven-month tour in the Middle East. His parents came to Jacksovnille when the received word of the hit-and-run accident.
Florida law requires drivers to stop at an accident scene if there are any injuries and the driver must stay at the scene until the police arrive. Florida statute 316.027 states that anyone that violates such law can be charged with a third degree felony. In such case, the driver would be provided an attorney to represent him or her for the charges.
