How the Gilbert Road Hit-and-Run Unfolded
Hospital manager Elana Gulla said a couple brought a sick cat to EVE Pet Hospital, at Gilbert Road and Broadway Road. Gulla said the couple returned a few hours later while the cat remained in the hospital's care. She said the woman then took the cat from the exam room and left, and the technician followed outside. The technician was struck by the vehicle, and Gulla then called police. She said the technician was hurt but is doing OK.
Where the Mesa Police Search Stands
Mesa police have opened an investigation and are still trying to learn who the couple are. Police asked anyone with information to call them. No arrests or charges have been announced.
A hit-and-run case does not close just because time passes. Some are solved months later when someone comes forward or new video surfaces.
