Police investigating hit and run collision in Owen Sound.
Owen Sound Police are investigating a motor vehicle accident that occurred in the city last evening involving two vehicles where one driver failed to remain at the scene.
At approximately 8:30 p.m. an Owen Sound woman was driving her Chevrolet Pick-up eastbound on 8th Street East turning left onto 9th Avenue East with the advanced green signal. A second vehicle, initially travelling westbound on 8th Street East, made a sudden manoeuvre to also turn northbound onto 9th Avenue East.
This vehicle failed to remain in the proper lane during the manoeuvre and collided with the Pick-up truck in the northbound centre lane. The suspect vehicle then reversed and fled the area westbound on 8th Street East.
The suspect vehicle is described as a newer, white 2 door foreign car with dark tinted windows. The vehicle will have significant damage to the driver's side. The pick-up truck required towing from the scene.
Anyone who may have information is asked to call PC Boyle at 519-376-1234 Ext. 187 or Crime Stoppers.
