The Bloomington Police Department is actively seeking assistance from the public in identifying a suspect involved in a hit-and-run incident. The collision, which left an unoccupied vehicle damaged, transpired on the 5th of July, 2024, at the Mall of America east ramp at around 10:50 PM. According to a post made by the Bloomington Police Department, the driver was reportedly "driving recklessly" before hitting the parked vehicle.
The vehicle in question is described as a newer-bright blue Dodge Challenger. Authorities have yet to apprehend the driver who, after striking the parked car, decided to quickly leave the scene instead of stopping to provide contact information, as is legally required. The Bloomington Police Department's post emphasized that "he struck the victim’s vehicle and left without leaving any information." With no witnesses having come forward with information to help positively identify the suspect, law enforcement officials are reaching out to anyone who might have knowledge about the incident.
In their call to action, the Bloomington Police Department urges anyone who might have information, no matter how insignificant it may seem, to step forward and contact the officer investigating the case at 952-563-8865. "Thanks for the help!!" the post concludes, signaling that the resolution of this event rests within the potential collective effort of those it reaches.
