A Portland woman’s SUV was damaged in an apparent hit and run in Portland Monday.
Deborah Bonvillian, 63, 314 E. Elder St., had stopped northbound on Commerce Street and was attempting to make a left turn onto High Street at the four-way stop when the front of an aqua-colored car southbound on Commerce Street collided with the passenger side of her 2000 Honda CR-V.
The car then was driven from the scene.
The accident occurred at 6:46 p.m. and total damage was estimated to be between $1,000 and $2,500.
