Suspect vehicle in hit-and-run sought

CLEARLAKE, Calif. – The Clearlake Police Department is looking for information about a vehicle that was involved in a hit-and-run incident on Tuesday night.


A report from Sgt. Rodd Joseph said the incident occurred at about 11 p.m. Tuesday.


He said Clearlake Police officers were dispatched to a reported hit-and-run with a vehicle in the 16100 block of 32nd Avenue.


When officers arrived to the scene they discovered a parked vehicle with significant rear end damage and a damaged metal driveway gate, he said.


Police interviewed witnesses who described the suspect vehicle as a black SUV with a chrome front grill guard, Joseph said.


The suspect vehicle, after crashing into the parked vehicle and metal gate, was last seen driving east on 32nd Avenue. Joseph said vehicle debris left on scene indicates that the suspect vehicle is likely a 1994-1996 black Jeep Cherokee.


The vehicle will have both front and rear end damage, said Joseph.


He said police are looking for this vehicle and owner.
