ST. JOSEPH, Mo. (News-Press NOW) — A man suffered minor injuries in a hit-and-run two-vehicle accident around 12th and Edmond Streets Wednesday.
A white Dodge pickup was heading south on 12th Street when it ran a stop sign and struck a white Ford F-150 that was heading east on Edmond Street.
The driver of the Dodge pickup fled on foot after driving further down the street.
“The white F-150 spun, impacted a KCP&L utility pole, which caused significant damage,” St. Joseph Police Sgt. Brian McClintick said. “Like I said, the Dodge pulled further down the street, and then witnesses said that he left the area with a dog.”
