A crash in Guelph earlier this month quickly turned into a hit-and-run investigation after the driver fled the scene. Now, police say a suspect has come forward and is facing charges.
A Cambridge man faces charges following a hit and run collision earlier this month.
Just after 3:30 a.m. April 3 emergency services responded for a single-vehicle collision at Paisley Road and Imperial Road South, where a Chevy Silverado pickup had collided with a hydro pole causing extensive damage.
Officers observed blood inside the vehicle and found a wallet and several beer cans, but the driver had fled the scene. A short time later police in Waterloo Region reported that the truck had been reported stolen from an address in Cambridge.
Following investigation a 20-year-old Cambridge man turned himself in to police Monday. He is charged with failing to stop after an accident and taking a motor vehicle without consent. He will appear in court July 10. (Occurrence number GU26021401)
