Whitehorse RCMP are appealing to the public to assist in identifying the driver of a truck with a camper involved in a hit-and-run collision on April 29 in Porter Creek.

At about 11:45 p.m., officers attended a collision on the Alaska Highway between 12th Avenue and Wann Road, police said Wednesday.

“According to a witness, a truck with a camper on the back was travelling northbound, crossed into the southbound lane, and sideswiped another vehicle,” police said.

“The driver of the second vehicle then lost control and went into the ditch, while the truck continued northbound without stopping.

“The driver and only occupant of the second vehicle had non-life-threatening injuries in addition to significant damage to their vehicle.”

The suspect truck may be a Ford F-250 or similar style, and the light-coloured camper is believed to have significant damage.

Police hope to speak with anyone who witnessed the collision or who has dashcam footage or surveillance video from the area that may show the vehicle leaving the scene.

“No further information about the other vehicle or its driver will be released in order to protect their privacy,” police have advised.
