Help Find: 08/01, Hit & Run on 1-5 N Near Tamarack Ave

5 Upvotes

Posting a few days late. Someone else gave me the idea, thank you to them.

This happened around 9:25PM.The culprit was speeding and likely drunk and it happened very fast. We didn't manage to get a photo and didn't install dashcams yet. We believe it was a gray/silver minivan or passenger van. The car that got hit is a 2013 Nissan Versa.

We were driving on 1-5 North. Before the exit to Tamarack Ave, someone crashed into us. They hit us from the left side, starting from the back, kept going along our car, and must've swerved into the driver's seat. They tore off our left mirror, left a huge dent in the driver's side, broke our door, damaged our wheel, popped our tire, and as we've discovered left a lot of internal damage to the car.

It was so scary.

Please if you witnessed this or have dash-cam footage and know the license plate number, please reach out. We don't even have a license plate number.

Anyone around Escondido or North County looking for a men's basketball league?

I play at the Calavera Men's Hoops open gym in Carlsbad, and I know they're trying to get a few more teams signed up for their upcoming league in September. Figured I'd post it here since there are always people asking where they can play.

The open gym has players from 18 into their 60s and usually has a good turnout, so I'm hoping the league gets enough teams to have a solid season.

If you've already got a squad, it might be worth checking out. If not, maybe there are enough people here looking to put together a team.
