Hit and Run Driver Caught By Neighbors Last Night on S. Laurel

Posted on by

Based on account by neighbor:

Late last night a driver slammed his vehicle into a parked car near S. Laurel and China. Unable to drive away, he then tried to run away. Neighbors chased after him and caught him. One neighbor demanded his keys while another called the police. The car that was it was so damaged that it was inoperable. As the cops were questioning the driver, ANOTHER neighbor came running up to the cops carrying a mirror, saying “Hey, stop him, that guy hit my neighbor’s car and knocked the mirror off.” So it sounds like more cars were hit further up the street. If you come out tomorrow and see your car has damage… the police have the insurance info of the driver. (THANKS to my neighbors for helping me stop him!)

Suspect Sought in Robbery on Grove Avenue

The Richmond Police Department is asking for the public’s help to identify a suspect in a robbery that occurred last week on Grove Avenue.

A few minutes after midnight on November 20, officers responded to the 2100 block of Grove Avenue in reference to a robbery. The victim reported that while walking along Rowland Street, she was approached by a man who pushed her down and attempted to take her purse. When she did not immediately let go, the suspect struck her again then took the bag.

The suspect got into an older model white sedan, which fled on Rowland Street toward Hanover Avenue. He is described as a black male in his early 20s.

Within an hour of the robbery, the suspect used the victim’s bank card at two 7-Eleven stores located at 11 West Grace St. and 122 S. Belvidere St. He was captured on surveillance video at both stores.

Anyone who has information about this person is asked to call Third Precinct Detective William Cutshall at (804) 646-1068 or Crime Stoppers at 780-1000. Citizens can also text Crime Stoppers at 274637, using the key word “ITip” followed by your tip. Both Crime Stoppers methods are anonymous.
