A vehicle was found in a creek at the intersection of Hewlitt Sturtevant Road and U.S. Highway 101 in Hopland, CA, today. The incident was reported around 1:32 PM, and emergency services quickly responded to the scene. Fortunately, no injuries were reported.

Upon arrival, responders discovered the vehicle partially submerged in the creek, with garbage visible inside. The vehicle was located on the property line of a nearby residence, and shoe prints were found outside, suggesting someone exited the vehicle before it entered the creek.

Further investigation revealed that this vehicle was linked to a previous hit-and-run incident that occurred on January 19, 2025. Authorities attempted to identify the renter of the vehicle through EAN Holdings, but the rental company was unable to provide information.

The situation was resolved without further complications, and a tow truck was called to remove the vehicle from the creek. This incident underscores the importance of prompt emergency response and the ongoing efforts of local authorities to address hit-and-run cases. Residents are encouraged to report any suspicious activity in their neighborhoods.
