Police have a key piece of evidence: video of the truck and neighbors say caused all that damage.
A hit-and-run crash in Chicago's Greater Grand Crossing neighborhood had so much force it caused a parked car pileup. Now police are looking for the driver. Neighbors say the truck swideswiped one car, then hit a parked car with so much force that it pushed several yards into several other parked cars. She said she bought her car as a graduate school gift to herself a few years ago, but Saturday afternoon her present became a thing of the past.
Then she saw her car crushed into the parked car pileup. Five cars were damaged on 72nd and St. Lawrence. Katryina Redmond's Chevy Blazer was one of those cars. A fast acting neighbor said she got video of the commercial truck pulling away from the hit-and-run crime scene, driving down the street, and turning the wrong way on a way-one as it left.Neighbors say they're not surprised by the reckless driving.
"They speed. They were on the spot. Stop signs. It's like a really dangerous street," said neighbor Devin Knox. "We're sitting here talking on the news about it and look. Why were you going that fast down this block. Why?" Redmond said. Redmond says her insurance provider is closed until Monday, the same day she goes back to work. She is unsure how she'll get there.Every neighbor CBS 2 talked with said that they see cars speeding through all the time. Redmond said she wants something to be done and suggested maybe even a speed bumps be put in.
