 Hi,
I'm Officer Butch Slater, Crime Stoppers' Coordinator
for Sangamon and Menard Counties.
This week Crime Stoppers is seeking information about
a hit and run that occurred on Saturday August 1st at
the intersection of Sangamon Ave and Peoria RD. The
victim states that he was on his bicycle in the crosswalk
going from the North side of Sangamon to the South side.
The victim also states he had the signal to cross. As
he started crossing, a white female in her 30's with
brown hair driving an older model dark van looked at
him and continued to turn striking him and knocking
him from his bicycle. The female then asked if he was
ok and continued to drive North on Peoria Rd without
rendering aid or notifying law enforcement. The victim
was taken to Memorial Medical center where he was treated
for a broken growth plate in his knee.
If you have information about this incident, you can
remain completely anonymous by contacting Crime Stoppers
at 217-788-8427 [1-800-397-2288], submitting
a tip via the internet or using
a cell phone to send a tip [type TIP672 plus your
message and send it CRIMES(274637)]. You could get a
cash reward of up to $1000.
Remember Crime Stoppers wants your information,
not your name.
