Vehicle accidents can be devastating and cause severe injury. When victims are injured and the driver who caused the accident decides to flee the scene, they are acting criminally. They could be leaving people behind to suffer and not receive the assistance they need.
On May 25, the Worcester Police Department received a report of a hit-and-run accident with minor injuries. The accident occurred around 11 in the morning and involved two-vehicles. Emergency personnel responded at the scene shortly afterwards and found that one of the drivers had fled the scene after the impact.
