No arrests have been made. Police announced they will offer a $1000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction in the case.
Based on a witness statement, police said that they are looking for a red pickup truck with rust spots and damage to the front driver’s side of the vehicle. They do not have a make or model of the truck, but it was last seen in the Big Hill Road area just minutes before the collision.
Croucher’s family is searching for answers as to who would leave an elderly man lying in the road to die.
“I hope somebody comes forward, accept the consequences of their actions. And If not, I hope they have a lot of sleepless nights.” Charley Croucher, the victim’s son told LEX 18.
