Chris Duhon struck by car in downtown Orlando

Free agent Chris Duhon was hit by a car in downtown Orlando on Saturday, according to FOX Orlando.

Police investigators have claimed that the driver intentionally hit Duhon after getting into a verbal altercation with the former Laker and his brother-in-law Julio Hernandez.

Hernandez told police that a black Lexus had started honking at them to get out of the way in a parking garage, and when the driver rolled down the window, some words were exchanged leading to the driver exiting the vehicle to argue face-to-face with Duhon. After the two were separated, the driver returned to the Lexus and accelerated towards Duhon and Hernandez as they were walking away. 

According to the report, Hernandez got out of the way, but Duhon was hit and landed on the hood of the car with his head hitting the windshield.

When Duhon was questioned about the incident, police say Duhon couldn't remember anything.

Both Hernandez and Duhon plan on pressing charges against the driver if he's caught.
