Bradenton Police Seek Public’s Help Identifying Driver in Hit-and-Run Incident

The Bradenton Police Department is working to identify two women involved in a hit-and-run accident that occurred on Thursday, August 29th, at the Last Call Bar located at 2604 Manatee Ave. E. According to reports, just before 5 p.m., the driver of a Jeep Renegade struck a parked Dodge Ram in the bar’s parking lot.

After the collision, the driver parked the vehicle and inspected both cars. However, instead of notifying the vehicle's owner or authorities, the women entered the bar without reporting the incident. Both women are believed to be in their late 30s or early 40s.

The police are now asking the public for assistance in identifying either the driver or the passenger of the Jeep Renegade. Anyone with information is encouraged to contact Officer Kaven Mendes via email at kaven.mendes@bradentonpd.com. Alternatively, individuals can call the Bradenton Police Department at 941-932-9300 and reference case number 2024-007088.
