Dumb Criminal: Not so Sneaky Hit and Run

When you hit a car in a parking lot, you're supposed to leave a note of the incident, otherwise it's considered a hit and run.

There is perhaps nothing more frustrating than to return to your car in a parking lot and find that someone has hit it and left the scene without leaving a note (as required by law).

Recently, Anna Limbeck responded to a “hit and run” call in a parking lot at a local store. Unfortunately for the driver of the vehicle who committed the hit and run violation, there were multiple people in the store parking lot who saw the incident occur.

The alert witnesses were able to provide Officer Limbeck with a complete license plate number and description of the driver and Officer Limbeck is following up on locating the driver and the vehicle.
