Summerville Police are investigating an incident involving property damage at the city’s wastewater treatment plant after a vehicle reportedly struck a commercial chain link fence.
According to the incident report, a vehicle traveled through or under fencing along a portion of Red Oak Drive, damaging the commercial chain link fence and knocking a major support pole loose from the ground. An adjacent gate was also possibly damaged during the incident.
The report states officers observed tire tracks showing the vehicle made a U-turn and exited back out of the treatment plant property. Investigators also located several pieces of broken tempered glass with an integrated defroster strip at the scene. The glass type is commonly found in the rear windows of small SUVs or trucks.
Authorities classified the case as involving duty upon striking a fixed object and leaving the scene, along with property damage.
The investigation remains on record with the Summerville Police Department.
