Woman injured in Sunday morning incident at Anniston Nightclub

A woman underwent surgery Monday in a Birmingham hospital after being run over by a car in Anniston while celebrating her 21st birthday Sunday with friends and family.

21 year old Margie Mitchell,  of Detroit, was struck by a vehicle in a parking lot outside the nightclub Ambitions on S. Quintard Ave. at about 3 a.m., according to witnesses.

The woman was struck and run over by a white, four-door Lexus driven by a man whom they did not know. The driver of that car then backed up and ran over Mitchell  again,  before leaving the parking lot. 

Family members said Mitchell suffered spinal injuries, a broken pelvis, arm and ribs, and burns from the vehicle’s tires. Mitchell underwent surgery at UAB Hospital in Birmingham on Monday and was in stable condition.
