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).
It's been one year since Hurricane Milton impacted our community. Tampa Bay 28 revisited some of Tampa Bay's hardest hit areas to show the recovery and the work that still needs to be done.
