posted (March 18, 2019)

So while he was not a regular patron at the bar - what do police have on this hit and run driver?  Here’s what they told us today:

ACP Joseph Myvette - Head, NCIB
"On Saturday sometime around 11 PM, Punta Gorda police receive information of a fatal traffic accident in Hicatee Village in the Toledo district on the Southern Highway where upon arrival, police observed the lifeless body of a male person later identified as Adriano Choco, 21 years of Hicatee Village. The investigation has shown that Choco has just exited a bar in the area and was walking on the highway when he was knocked down. Police investigation so far, I believe led them to Indian Creek Village, where one person has been detained pending this investigation as well."

Daniel Ortiz
"Do you think you have enough to charge this person?"

ACP Joseph Myvette
"At this point in time we're still investigating."
