Sisters police seek hit-and-run driver

Police are seeking information on a vehicle that ran a Sisters man down in a crosswalk on Monday afternoon, July 20. The 70-year-old man suffered contusions and abrasions in the incident, but was not severely hurt.

According to the sheriff's office reports, the man parked near Hucklebeary's and started across the street to Sno Cap Drive-in. One westbound car stopped for him, but another passed the stopped car on the right, striking the man and knocking him down and continuing on.

The man could only give sheriff's deputies a vague description of the suspect vehicle: a medium brown mid-1980s General Motors passenger car.

The man drove himself to a local medical clinic for assistance and then reported the incident to the sheriff's office.

Police are asking anyone who may have witnessed the incident to call the Sisterssheriff's station at 549-2302.
