Police Just Came By To Notice A Hit And Run Claim By A Third Party Note
Location: Oregon.
This evening a police officer came to our door to notify my partner that a report had been filed today claiming that a witness had observed his car hitting and damaging the bike rack on another parked car today where he parks outside his office. The officer was just requesting my partner’s contact and insurance info to share with the victim, who had specifically said that she doesn’t want to press charges.
My partner is very confident that he didn’t hit anything, and our car doesn’t have any scrapes or damage (it’s new). The officer claimed that the dust on a rear corner being smudged was proof (huh?), and said that the fact that an uninvolved third party left the note (with our license plate) was good evidence because they wouldn’t have a reason to fabricate. Seems bizarre to me.
We went ahead and shared our phone number for the victim to reach out, and the officer already had our insurance info to share.
If relevant, my partner is a clinical mental health therapist working for local government and some kind of client-involved retaliation isn’t impossible. We aren’t sure yet if there is video footage but will find out soon.
What are the chances that this is an insurance fraud scheme? This is very new territory for us, so any advice is appreciated!
And yes- slow news day in the neighborhood for cops to be following up so proactively on this.
