London police have released a new image and information regarding a suspect vehicle allegedly involved in the hit-and-run death of a 29-year-old Fanshawe College student in September.
According to a press release from the London Police Service (LPS), the LPS Traffic Management Unit continues to investigate a fatal hit-and-hit that claimed the life of Fanshawe College student Jibin Benoy on Sept. 18.
Because police have yet to identify the suspect vehicle or driver, police released new information and images to the public on Thursday in the hope of obtaining additional information that could help investigators.
Police said the vehicle, which was carrying passengers, was seen on Richmond Street and investigators are in the process of reviewing surveillance footage from that area.
The suspect vehicle is identified as a blue coloured sedan that will have sustained damage to the front passenger side of the bumper and windshield, but police said the vehicle may have been since repaired. In addition, the vehicle had a loud exhaust system.
