Lincoln Police Department reports for Monday, April 6

Property damage on April 2 at 9:26 p.m.; 1500 West St./Boyce Drive, 40 feet north of Boyce Drive

--unknown Chrysler vehicle

On April 2 at approximately 9:26 p.m. Lincoln units were dispatched to Tremont Park in reference to a passenger car that struck a light pole and a tree before leaving the scene.

A witness said he heard a noise outside while he was sitting inside his house. When he looked outside he saw a gold-colored passenger car that ran over the light pole, then struck a tree. The witness said that the vehicle backed up after hitting the tree and left, heading eastbound through Tremont Park.

A search of the scene produced a couple of broken pieces of plastic and possible headlight covers. One piece of plastic had the Chrysler logo on it.

The vehicle had to have been traveling northbound through Tremont Park and left the roadway continuing straight. The vehicle struck the light post and continued forward to strike the tree. The front passenger side of the vehicle took out the light pole and also struck the tree, so the vehicle must have sustained light damage to the passenger side and most likely is missing a front headlight on that side.
