Another Hit & Run Crash Reported in Saline

For the second time in three days, a hit-and-run crash has been reported in Saline.

The Saline Police Department was dispatched to Willis Road and South Ann Arbor Street around 3:45 p.m. for a hit and run. 

The crash happened at around 3:45 p.m. at Old Creek Drive and  Willis Road, where a Saline man in his Subaru was waiting at a stop sign. That's when the man was rear-ended by a man driving a gray Chevy Malibu. The collision pushed the man's vehicle forward and into a curb. His vehicle was damaged in the rear and front. 

The beige Malibu did not stop and continued past the Subaru, turned right on Willis and turned left at Saline-Milan Road.

The victim of the hit-and-run was not injured, but he was upset by the incident - especially since he'd only recently gotten his Subaru repaired.

Metro Dispatch alerted police to be on the lookout for a grey Chevy Malibu.

The driver of the Malibu was a middle-aged man with reddish hair and a beard, according to the Saline man.

Thursday night, there was a hit and run at Austin Road and Dell Road. The driver fled his overturned F-150 on foot. Michigan State Police, Saline Police and the Washtenaw County Sheriff's Office searched for the man, who was found after several hours on Friday morning.
