(um) Yesterday afternoon, at around 2:30 p.m., a traffic accident occurred on Bökenwiese in Valdorf. An as yet unknown driver of a presumably white van damaged a wall of a property there through an uncontrolled driving maneuver. As a result of the collision with the vehicle, the driver damaged a supporting pillar of the wall as well as the stone structure itself. Property damage of at least 1000 euros was caused. The driver, who must have noticed the collision, continued on his way without bothering to settle the claim. The Herford traffic commissioner's office is now investigating this case. A resident of the house was in the kitchen and witnessed the accident. The witness statements are currently being compiled. Officers also secured vehicle parts left behind at the scene and recorded the accident on site. The police are appealing for further witnesses in this case. Information about the crime should be sent to the traffic police in Herford on 05221-8880.
