A man waived his right to a preliminary hearing after being charged with hitting a pedestrian in Chambersburg without a proper license. The 33-year-old is scheduled for an arraignment in the Court of Common Pleas. He remains in Franklin County Jail after being charged with causing the pedestrian accident, along with unsafe backing and driving with a suspended license.
