    My car got hit in front of Zeek's pizza a couple of weeks ago by a hit-and-run driver. Though a witness got the license plate, it's registered under a fake address(!) The detective working the case ask that I post this description of the car that hit me on the blog and ask that people be on the lookout. Because a witness saw him later stop at a house on California Ave, there is the thought that he may know someone here. I am specifically not publishing his name and I'm leaving off one number and one letter from the license plate to avoid concerns about vigilantism. Thanks in advance for your eagle-eyes!

    On Wednesday, May 13, 2009 at 1015 PM, a 1994 (Dark Green) Land Rover bearing WA #68_WQ_, was the at-fault vehicle in a hit & run collision, which occurred at the intersection of California Avenue SW & Fauntleroy Way SW. The Land Rover collided with another occupied vehicle, while it was legally stopped for a red traffic signal. The Land Rover immediately fled the scene without stopping, exchanging information, and/or providing assistance to an injured driver. The Land Rover was last seen approximately one mile to the south of the accident scene parked on California Av SW., within the Gatewood neighborhood.

    Vehicle Description: 1994 Dark Green Land Rover SW bearing WA #68_WQ_. Light wheel cover over rear-mounted spare tire.

    The driver of the Land Rover was described as a white male, large muscular build, with long dark hair. The driver appeared to be intoxicated the evening of the accident.

    If the vehicle is observed please call 911. Do not attempt to contact the driver. Refer to Seattle P.D. Incident No. #09-163206. For further inquires please contact Seattle Police Detective T. Wear at #(206) 684-8935.

  2. I'll keep an eye out, TVB.

    How are *you* doing in your recovery from the aches and pains that were a result in this incident?

    Just giving this a bump in hopes of reaching some more eagle-eyes!

    Hey TVB - can you get permission to post this at MJ businesses and/or in lobbies of condos/apts? Maybe with an agreed upon "pull" date so they don't feel like it would be there forever...and can people make anonymous tips to that number? I'm just trying to think of where you might reach the person that the driver was visiting.

    Glad you're on the mend BTW!!

    Maybe a dumb question but has the police department gone by the house on California to ask what they know about the car?

    The witness who saw the car/guy couldn't identify the exact house again, so we're at a dead end there too. :(
