WEYMOUTH, MASS. (WHDH) - A Weymouth gas station employee was struck and injured by a car Monday night.

A woman driving a Nissan SUV struck a man in his 50s around 8 p.m. at the Mobile Gas Station on Route 18 near the Middle Street intersection.

The man was transported to South Shore Hospital to be treated for serious injuries.

The gas station’s owner confirmed that the injured man survived a vicious armed robbery last January.

“He got pistol-whipped and he still came back to work like a week later and this is what he gets,” customer Richard Pike said.

Pike said the victim is a family man and that he is praying for his loved ones.

Weymouth police investigated the damage done to the right passenger side of the SUV.

The driver, a middle-aged woman, remained at the scene and is cooperating with police.

An investigation is ongoing though officers say they have not found any evidence of impairment.
