The Indian River County Sheriff's Office announced Wednesday that a vehicle connected to a deadly hit-and-run crash on Sunday, Aug. 9, has been recovered. The sheriff's office said its Real-Time Crime Center assisted the Florida Highway Patrol in the investigation, which led to the discovery.
A vehicle matching the description of the suspected truck was identified by the Real-Time Crime Center analyst. The truck was missing a passenger-side mirror. Using other technology, the analyst identified the truck's license plate and associated driver information. The information was immediately given to FHP, which located the truck and confirmed it was involved in the crash with a bicyclist.
The investigation continues in identifying the driver of the truck.
