Ponoka RCMP are looking for an older driver who allegedly sideswiped a parked vehicle and didn’t stop.

Police say the incident occurred Jan. 9 at about noon at the Hamilton’s IGA parking lot. The individual is seen in camera surveillance walking to a black Dodge pickup with her face covered by the collar of her coat. She had just left IGA.

As she was pulling out of the parking spot the video shows the pickup making contact with a Dodge truck parked right next to it.

“The suspect female does not slow down and continues out of the parking lot,” say police.
