Semi Driver Sought In Hit-And-Run That Left Woman Seriously Injured
(STMW) -- Police are searching for the driver of a semi that struck another vehicle and then drove off early Friday in the Fuller Park neighborhood on the South Side, leaving a woman in serious condition.
About 5 a.m., the woman, whose exact age wasn't available, was driving south on Wentworth Avenue when a silver-blue semi without a trailer struck her vehicle at the 47th Street intersection, according to a community alert from Chicago Police.
