CABOT, AR — October 5, 2026 A motorcycle passenger suffered serious injuries after a hit-and-run collision involving a white truck near Highway 5 and Quail Trail in Cabot, Arkansas. Authorities are seeking information about the driver who allegedly left the scene without stopping to assist the injured riders.
According to the reported details, the crash happened at approximately 9:45 p.m. on October 5. Jasmine Hudgings, 32, was riding as a passenger on a motorcycle operated by her boyfriend when a white truck allegedly moved directly into their path.
The motorcycle operator attempted to avoid the vehicle but lost control. The motorcycle subsequently entered a roadside ditch, throwing both occupants from the bike.
Following the collision, the truck driver reportedly continued away from the area without providing assistance or remaining at the scene.
Hudgings sustained several serious injuries, including a fractured left femur, multiple ankle fractures and significant damage to her knee. Her condition initially raised concerns about the possibility of losing her leg. However, emergency surgeons at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) successfully performed surgery to save it.
She is expected to face an extended recovery period as she continues treatment for her injuries.
The motorcycle operator, identified as her boyfriend, also sustained injuries but was released after receiving medical attention that same evening.
