Fatal Detroit Hit And Run Car Accident
There was a tragic story in the paper today about a man killed in a fatal Detroit hit and run accident this morning, March 10th, on Detroit’s west side. According to police, the man was struck on Greenfield Road by a vehicle and pinned under it. The man who struck him jumped out of his car and took off on foot. Police are searching for the suspect.
I am very sorry to hear about this accident and send my most sincere condolences to the family of the Detroit man for their loss.
