Winter Haven Police asked for the public's help to identify a hit-and-run driver who slammed into a parked vehicle earlier this month.
According to police, at around 10:45 p.m. on December 5, a dark-colored, late-model Jeep Gladiator with large wheels, what appeared to be a lifted suspension, and changing-color neon lights hit a sedan parked along the street.
The crash heavily damaged the sedan, and it could not be driven. The sedan's owner is a young mother who has no transportation for her and her children after the hit-and-run.
Police ask anyone with information to call Winter Haven Police or Heartland Crime Stoppers at 888-400-TIPS (8477).
There are some truly inspiring people who call the Tampa Bay area home. People who overcome odds that others could not even imagine. Tampa Bay 28 anchor Lauren St. Germain met a woman who is doing just that, as she competes at an international level after 2 life-saving lung transplants.
