Sheriff’s office personnel this morning identified a 48-year-old Chattanooga man as the victim of a hit-and-run accident Sunday night.
Terry Bailey was crossing Cummings Highway when he was hit by a vehicle traveling west, according to Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman Janice Atkinson.
The vehicle did not stop after striking with Mr. Bailey, Ms. Atkinson said.
According to witnesses, the vehicle was a Mercury operated by a heavyset white female with short brown hair. Officials did not provide the color or model of the car.
Traffic investigators interviewed several witnesses, but Ms. Atkinson is asking anyone with information to call the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office at 622-0022.
