Middlebury Police Log: Police investigate hit and run

MIDDLEBURY — Middlebury police investigated a hit-and-run accident at around 9:18 p.m. on Friday, May 20, on Seymour Street, in which a man was struck in the back and sustained minor injuries.
Police said the 20-year-old was crossing Seymour Street from the Congregational Church of Middlebury toward the Middlebury Post Office and was struck in the back by a vehicle traveling on Seymour Street toward Main Street. The vehicle left the scene and was last seen proceeding up Court Square, according to authorities.
The vehicle was described only as being a “small, shiny black passenger car.” The victim took himself to Porter Hospital for treatment of what police described as “non-incapacitating injuries.”
