Police Search for Hit and Run Driver Who Killed VIetnam Veteran

This story really has my blood boiling. How could anyone just leave this veteran to die on the street? Considering I just dropped off a new mailbox to replace my neighbor's box I hit yesterday morning, it is sickening to read about someone not even caring they hit a person.

SAVANNAH, GA (WJCL) — Major Accident investigation Team (MAIT) officers from the Savannah-Chatham Metropolitan Police Department have narrowed their search for a truck involved in a Jan. 4 hit-and-run to a red Chevrolet.

Investigators are looking for a red 1999 or 2000 Chevrolet Silverado, Tahoe or Suburban with damage to its front end on the right side as the vehicle that struck and killed a Florida man on Abercorn Street that Sunday night.

Peter Meyers, 72, of Vero Beach, FL, was found on the ground in front of a motel on the 5700 block of Abercorn about 10:30 p.m.

He was walking across Abercorn at the time he was struck and thrown into shrubbery. The incident could have taken place before, during or after a rain storm earlier in the evening. 

Meyers, a Vietnam veteran and recipient of the Bronze Star, was laid to rest with military honors at the United States Military Academy at West Point on January 13. read more here
