Thanks to RCMP, neighbour for catching hit and run driver

I wanted to take a moment to thank my neighbour and the local RCMP

Dear Editor,

I wanted to take a moment to thank my neighbour and the local RCMP for finding an individual who ran into my legally parked vehicle and fled the scene.

In the early hours of Sunday (Apr. 14th) an individual was driving a vehicle westbound on a local street in Sylvan when it veered across a lane of traffic and struck my truck, causing a few thousand dollars’ worth of damage in the process. The driver immediately left the scene.

Thankfully, my neighbour contacted the RCMP and they immediately made patrols and located the vehicle involved.

All too often the actions of others are not properly recognized.

In the case of law enforcement officers, many people are quick to complain but will very rarely acknowledge an excellent job done.

Thank you once again.

Levi Simcoe,

Sylvan Lake
