		<description><![CDATA[By Tara Overzat I moved to South Florida in 1991.  Being an eight-year-old I missed any chance of hearing that Rick Sanchez hit and paralyzed a man, Jeffrey Smuzinick, and fled the scene blowing a 0.15 blood alcohol level over an hour later. Granted, Smuzinick was reportedly intoxicated himself and stepped out in front of [...]]]></description>
