The incident happened Saturday at about 8:45 p.m. in the 1200 block of Lotus Drive.
According to police, a white Dodge Charger and a red Chevrolet pickup truck were street racing, which prompted a 57-year-old resident to confront the truck driver.
As the man stood behind the truck, yelling at the driver, the driver reversed his vehicle, police said. The man was struck by either the side mirror or the front of the truck and was thrown to the ground.
The victim initially declined medical treatment, but later went to a hospital with knee and foot pain, police said.
Video of the incident has been circulating on social media, police said.
