The PCSO Traffic Unit is seeking the public's help in a hit-and-run investigation. Preliminary information so far is as follows:
Around 8:35 p.m. on Saturday, April 20, 2019, an adult female victim was found unconscious on Duff Road near Beaumont Drive in Lakeland. She had injuries consistent with being struck by a vehicle.
Based on the evidence, deputies believe the victim was walking westbound when she was struck from behind by a 1999-2002 Dodge Ram model 1500, 2500, or 3500 pickup truck, of an unknown color. The suspect truck will likely have damage to the right front passenger side headlight or turn signal lamp, and side mirror damage.
A photo of the type of truck that may be involved is attached here.
If anyone has information about this incident, they are urged to contact Deputy Sheriff Potter at 863-297-1100.
