FHP Looking For Dump Truck With Equipment Trailer In Hit And Run
January 22, 2019
UPDATE: The Florida Highway Patrol has released a photo of third vehicle wanted in connection with a hit and run crash January 17 on Fairfield Drive.
Troopers are looking for a single axle dump truck with a white cab and black dump bed, towing a 30-foot dove-trail trailer that is possibly yellow with three pieces of equipment, including a Bobcat.
The photo released by the FHP is above.
A white Dodge pickup truck was traveling westbound on Fairfield Drive approaching Pace Boulevard as a pedestrian was crossing northbound on Fairfield Drive. Witnesses told troopers that the pickup did not have headlights and was driving in two lanes when the pedestrian was struck.
The truck is a white in color Dodge pickup, possibly a dually, with white hub caps. It may have a black color front grill protector.
Friday afternoon, the FHP said they are also looking for a dark in color pickup that may have also been involved in the crash. Troopers also said the drivers of the black and white pickup trucks many not have known they struck the pedestrian.
The pedestrian was pronounced deceased on the scene. His name has not yet been released pending notification of next of kin.
Anyone with any information about this crash or information about a possible vehicle, is asked to contact FHP Corporal E. Diaz at (850) 484-5000.

that truck and bobcat u can tell looks like tree service .
The Dump Truck looks like one of the small driveway paving companys around town.
It is highly unlikely that whoever did this does not know. With all of the media coverage even if they don’t know, somebody they know has seen the media coverage and mentioned it. Whoever needs to own up to this…
