Muskego Police are looking for a suspect who fled the scene of an accident last week after striking another vehicle, then assaulting the driver.

According to police reports, a hit-and-run accident was reported on Friday, March 29, around 3:30 in the morning on Highway 36 near Muskego Dam Drive. 

According to the victim, a woman from Waterford, she and the suspect began to exchange information after an incident where the man sideswiped her vehicle upon passing her along Highway 36. The man approached her in her vehicle after they had pulled over and was cooperative, telling her that he would make sure to give her his insurance information.

However, after the victim stated she was calling police, the suspect began to pull her hair and assault her while she was seated in her vehicle, according to reports.

She fled in her vehicle and the suspect gave chase, ramming the victim’s vehicle and causing it to spin 180 degrees before taking off.
