Denver Police to Sunday hit-and-run victim: We found a suspect, please call us
Aug. 31, 2016. (Kevin J. Beaty/Denverite)
Denver police are seeking a hit-and-run victim’s car after citing the suspect’s car. Wish I had this kind of luck after my car got sideswiped on Emerson Street this summer.
At 9 a.m. Sunday morning, a silver Toyota rear-ended a silver Honda on Sheridan boulevard at the Alameda stop light. Police say that the Toyota fled the scene, despite the driver’s motions to pull over. The very definition of a hit-and-run.
But then, police found the silver Toyota and cited the driver about two blocks away. Unfortunately, officers didn’t find the silver Honda or its driver.
So if you know someone who drives a silver Honda and was in an accident Sunday morning, I bet they’d be happy for the chance to recoup any damage costs. Tell that person to call Denver Police at (720) 337-4505.
