Hit-skip crash investigated at RV park
Deputies were dispatched about 2:25 a.m. Sunday to a report of a brawl at the Lakeside RV Park, 11348 State Route 235 North, Lakeview.
Richard Conley, 52, of Troy, reported that an unknown person had knocked on his trailer at Lot 61 and said his parked truck had been struck by a golf cart.
Mr. Conley and several others began looking for the golf cart. He said a golf cart with damage matching debris left at the scene had been located at Lot 150. When they went to that location, an altercation reportedly ensued between two groups of people.
Deputies then spoke with several people associated with Lot 150 and no one would take responsibility for operating the golf cart. The hit-skip crash remains under investigation.
