A Schofield Barracks soldier who was walking along H-2 Freeway in the dark following an argument was hit by a car and critically injured just after midnight yesterday, police said.


Pfc. Jesse Hart was on foot after getting out of a friend's car because of an argument, police said. He was walking along the freeway when a car traveling north hit him just before the Wahiawa off-ramp about 12:25 a.m., police said.

Hours earlier, Hart had celebrated his 21st birthday on a double date, said his grandmother, Linda Hart, in his hometown of Boyd, Texas.
