High Point police looking for black SUV suspected in hit-and-run
HIGH POINT, N.C. (WGHP) — A man out for a walk with his dog was hit by a car, and the driver is nowhere to be found.
High Point police need your help finding the person responsible.
Chuck Sova was walking his goldendoodle, Beau, when High Point police say a car hit him when trying to make a right turn onto Rolling Road and knocked him on the ground.
A police report notes that before taking off, the driver reversed before driving off on Oakview Road.
Sova was left with serious injuries. He was taken to the hospital, but his dog Beau is OK.
High Point police released a photo of what is believed to be the suspect vehicle. Police said it is an early 2000s Black GMC SUV, possibly with damage on the front.
If this weren't enough, it's the second scary incident for Sova and Beau when on a walk.
Six months ago, FOX8 spoke with Sova after Beau was attacked by another dog on a walk.
Sova's significant other said Sova has a long road to recovery ahead.
He has a fractured kneecap and is scheduled to have surgery for his injuries next week
