Milford Hit-And-Run: Police Seeking Different Cars in Crash that Killed Boy
The red scion that was sought by police was not the vehicle involved in a hit and run that killed a four-year-old boy.
MILFORD, MA—Since yesterday, police have asked locals to be on the lookout for a red Scion that had reportedly been involved in a hit and run that killed a four-year-old boy from Framingham on Water Street in Milford.
According to investigators, the Toyota Scion may have been in the area where the boy was killed, but is not the vehicle that struck Jonathan Loja. Police ask that the driver or passengers in the Scion call police, as they may have been in the area where Loja was struck.
Police are now looking for two other vehicles that were on Water Street between 4:30 and 5 p.m. on Easter Sunday. One is a 2010 Chevy Traverse, dark colored. The other is a 2015 or 2016 Nissan Rogue, light color.
