MELVINDALE — The driver of a gray minivan fled the scene of a crash the night of Jan. 15 after he rear-ended a sport utility vehicle that was stopped at a traffic light on southbound Raupp Road at Oakwood Boulevard.
The victim, whose vehicle was damaged but drivable, said the other driver was a white male in his 50s, wearing a baseball cap, who left the scene quickly, driving west on Oakwood.
The man did not see the other driver’s license plate number, but did notice pre-existing vehicle damage on the minivan driver’s side door.
