Title: was in a hit and run. need help to track them down
Post by: Chipotle on May 20, 2008, 06:01:22 PM

Hello all. Well as the title states, my son and I were involved in a hit and run accident on Sunday evening. The police have so far not been able to locate the driver, and I am not sure if they will be able to due to there being so many of these and nobody was able to get any information on the other vehicle.

So to any of you located in Georgia, specifically the east cobb area, could let me know if you have any information that would help in this.  This happened on Davis Rd. off of Shallowford Rd. A witness tried to follow them, but lost them around Chaffin Rd, in Roswell. The vehicle that hit me was a black ford f150. He would have damage to the front probably more the drivers front. They had dark tinted windows, and i think a graphic on the windshield.

Fortunately nobody was seriously hurt in this, other than some back pain. But any information if anyone has anything, would be great.

My first supercharged Mustang was hit in the rear by a drunk in an XJ at a traffic light, then the goofball ran.  I chased him easily around town for 20 minutes while on the phone with dispatch.  The cops finally caught up with us and cornered him.  They just laughed at me and said "Good Job".  XJ was also stolen.
