On Thursday, September 3, there was a hit and run accident in Houston.

According to police, the accident happened shortly after 4 p.m. in the 2300 block of Fountain View Drive. They went on to say that a 45 year old man was working in a parking lot belonging to an apartment building when he was hit from behind by a white SUV.

Luckily there was a witness to the incident who was able to tell police that a man got out of the SUV following the crash and then fled the scene without calling 911 or helping the injured man. The witness described the man as being 25 to 30 years old with black wavy hair but could not describe the make or model of the vehicle nor any details of the license plate. Unfortunately there are no security cameras which recorded the incident.

The victim was taken to a hospital in Houston with serious head trauma and facial lacerations.

By the end of the month the police still did not have any leads and Crime Stoppers are now offering a $5,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the hit and run suspect.
