San Antonio Police Seek Public Assistance in Fatal Hit-and-Run Case
Investigation Launched After Tragic Incident
San Antonio, TX – The San Antonio Police Department (SAPD) has issued a public appeal for information regarding a fatal hit-and-run incident that claimed the life of 21-year-old Isai Manuel Alvarado earlier this year. The tragic event, which occurred in 2023, involved a dark blue sedan that fled the scene following the collision, leaving behind a devastated family and community seeking justice.
Details Surrounding the Incident
On a fateful day this past spring, Alvarado was struck by a vehicle while walking in a designated crosswalk. Eyewitnesses reported that the dark blue sedan did not stop to render aid and sped away in an unknown direction following the collision. Authorities have described the vehicle as possibly being a mid-2000s model, with distinctive features that may assist in identifying it.
"The loss of Isai has left a permanent void in our lives," said Alvarado’s family in a statement, expressing their heartbreak and urging anyone with information to come forward. "We hope that someone saw something or knows something that could help the authorities find the person responsible."
Community Impact and Police Response
The SAPD has intensified their investigation in light of community concerns over pedestrian safety in the area. Detectives have spent weeks reviewing surveillance footage and interviewing witnesses, but the lack of leads has prompted them to turn to the public for assistance.
Police Chief William McManus emphasized the importance of community involvement in solving this case. "We are asking anyone who may have witnessed the incident or has any information regarding the vehicle or the driver to contact us immediately," he stated during a recent press conference. "Even the smallest detail could be crucial in bringing justice for Isai and his family."
