ACTON, Mass. — Acton Police have identified the suspected driver of a hit-and-run crash that seriously injured a teenage boy earlier this month.
Chief Richard Burrows announced on Friday that they have identified the suspect but are still gathering evidence for an arrest.
13-year-old, Cesar Soto Jr., was struck in a crosswalk on Great Road and Harris Street in Acton on November 2, according to police. Soto Jr. suffered serious injuries and was flown to a Boston hospital where he underwent surgery, according to his family. His condition was not known on Friday.
Police detectives obtained video surveillance from a nearby business, and through their investigation identified the vehicle of interest. That vehicle was seized pursuant to a search warrant on Nov. 7. Investigators continue to process evidence from that vehicle.
