Police arrested a hit-and-run suspect and recovered the vehicle involved about 30 minutes after the accident at Westside Boulevard and Central Avenue that sent a local woman to the hospital with injuries.
Police allege the 22-year-old Hollister man struck a vehicle at the intersection Tuesday afternoon and fled immediately, said Sgt. David Westrick with the Hollister Police Department. The vehicle that was struck spun and ended up in the front yard of a nearby residence.
Police about 30 minutes later recovered the vehicle at Felice Drive and San Juan Road and arrested the suspect, the sergeant said. There were two people in the victim vehicle, but police did not have further details immediately available.
The HPD is preparing to send a report to the San Benito County District Attorney’s Office for potential prosecution, he said.
Below is video from the accident scene.
