Erie County Sheriff Timothy B. Howard is seeking the public’s help in identifying a tractor-trailer involved in a hit and run collision that occurred at approximately 11:00 A.M. at the intersection of Transit and Clinton in the Town of Elma on February 26.
The truck was traveling northbound on Transit Road when witnesses observed the tractor-trailer make a right turn onto Clinton Street.

The Sheriff’s Office is looking for a blue or purple-ish cab with a full length, open box aluminum trailer with a canvass cover. The trailer may have damage to the left side of the box. Witnesses stated they observed the tractor-trailer dragging something after the collision.
Anyone with information about this collision is asked to call the Erie County Sheriff’s Office at 716.858.2903 and refer to CL# 19-015744.
The driver of the vehicle which was struck by the truck sustained minor injuries and was released from an area treatment center following an evaluation and treatment.
