An Arizona couple in their 60s was intentionally hit by the driver of a truck Monday who claimed the devil told him to kill people.

Surveillance video from the home of neighbor Linda Gourley shows a dark grey GMC truck following the couple just after 7:30 a.m. in Glendale, KNXV-TV reported.

"To know that somebody was on the street, and I felt like he was almost stalking,” Gourley — who's lived in her home near 51st Avenue and Bell Road for 50 years — recalled to the station. “He was so slow. It wasn't normal."

The couple's attorney, Chris Goodnow, identified the victims as Lisa Lenahan and Kirt Heaward and said they often took walks in their neighborhood, KNXV noted.

Additional video shows the couple walking on the sidewalk when the driver of the truck — 49-year-old Refugio Torres — speeds up and hits Lenahan, the station said.

Her shoe flew off as a result of the impact, KNXV said, adding that Torres then drove away.

Phoenix police found Torres at a home down the street, KNXV reported, adding that court documents indicate Torres told police he was having issues with his brain and the devil told him to kill three people.

Heaward suffered a broken leg and ribs, while Lenahan suffered a brain bleed and is unable to speak, the station said.
