OAK CLIFF, TX — One man was killed in a serious hit-and-run accident in Oak Cliff, Texas on Sunday, June 22nd, 2014, according to the Dallas Morning News’ accident summary.
Police say an as-of-yet unidentified 70-year-old man was killed when he was struck by a vehicle that fled the scene when he was walking along or trying to cross South Hampton Road near the intersection with Illinois Avenue early Sunday morning.
Scene of the Accident
The 70-year-old man was killed in the accident.
Authorities currently hope that any eyewitnesses that have not yet come forward will do so in an effort to aid investigators in better understanding the nature of the accident.
Commentary:
The inherent problem with bringing a claim with a hit-and-run accident lies in the fact that a driver must be found before any progress can be made whatsoever. The intensity of the investigation largely depends on the extent of the injuries, loss of life, or property damage, once a driver is found, determining their whereabouts before the accident could yield yet another liable party if they came from a bar and were served outside regulation.
