Bicyclist says struck by car

A local bicyclist said the driver of a blue Chevrolet Camaro struck him and then fled while he was riding in Ooltewah last week.

The victim ran off the road in the 4300 block of Green Shanty Road on May 6 because of the impact and suffered minor injuries, including a broken nose.

The vehicle had silver stripes on the side and Tennessee tags, the victim told deputies.

Anyone with information on the incident is asked to contact the traffic division of the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office at 893-3503.


Theft, forgery charges filed

A man was booked Wednesday on charges of theft and forgery after he deposited a fraudulent $945 check in January.
