Former Police Car Involved In July Hit-And-Run In Minneapolis; Victim Still In Critical Condition

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- Police say a man is still "fighting for his life" after being struck by a hit-and-run driver late last month near downtown Minneapolis.

The victim was hit just after 3 a.m. on July 25 by a black and white, late model Dodge Charger -- which is believed to be a former police squad car -- on West 15th Street near Nicollet Avenue. He is still listed in critical condition more than three weeks later.
