RIVERSIDE, Calif. – The Riverside Police are asking for the public’s help to identify a hit and run suspect.
On Wednesday, May 15, 2019, at around 3:45 p.m. the suspect exited the 60/215 freeway near the Eastside neighborhood of Riverside. “The suspect vehicle exited the freeway at Blaine at a high rate of speed, crossing all lanes, where it collided with a van on the opposite corner, knocking the van onto the sidewalk where several teens were walking,” Riverside Police officials said. “It is thought the van may have struck at least one of the teens, but the teens left before police arrived.”
