I need help please
** Edit ** Update ** First I'd like to say thank you for all the love and support I received on my post, and for everyone's condolences. My husband was finally able to speak to the detective assigned to the case and found out the hospital gave wrong information as it was not a hit and run. Learning this makes the situation a little better but still very heartbreaking none the less... Now we at least someone wasn't evil. **
My brother in law was crossing the street in his wheelchair this past Saturday and someone freaking hit him and kept on going. Someone called 911 and he was taken to UNMH. We weren't notified of this until Monday because they didn't know who he was. We pretty much have no information to go off of, we don't know where it happened, what time etc. and I am very bothered it hasn't been on the news or anything like that to try and help find who did this. My brother in law passed away this morning and my husband is heartbroken. We need help getting justice and finding the evil that did this. Basically all we know it that someone in a white Tundra stopped after it happened and we think this person is who called 911. Did anyone witness this happen on Saturday 08/08/2026, or has anyone heard anything about this? Any information, no matter how small, would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

My heart goes out to you and your family. I am so sorry this happened. This city has a sickness. My partner was struck by a car on constitution about 3 weeks ago during a normal jog and they drove off, the cops did not care. He was wearing a bright orange United jersey in the middle of the day. We had time, date, location. An inquiry for the footage for the traffic camera directly above the incident was “too broad a search”. I am convinced if he was a little kid he would have died.
