SOUTH CHICAGO HEIGHTS, Ill. — Police in South Chicago Heights seek help locating the driver involved in a 2020 deadly hit-and-run crash after releasing new details about the collision.

New photos released by the department on Wednesday show a Dodge Straus that police said failed to yield to oncoming traffic at the intersection of Sauk Trail and Chicago Road and cut off a motorcycle on May 25, 2020.

The collision caused injuries to the motorcyclists, who were husband and wife. Both were taken to a nearby hospital, where 55-year-old Christie Harkins was later pronounced dead.

The suspect vehicle may have had a moon roof and a paper-like license plate.

The investigation continues. Police are offering a $1,000 cash reward for information leading up to an arrest or conviction of the driver involved.
