Cheerleader Chant Leads To Driver Involved In Crash Police Trace License Plate To Ann Arbor Man
POSTED: 3:46 pm EDT August 5, 2005
A team of cheerleaders attending a camp in Ann Arbor did what came naturally after witnessing a crash on Wednesday afternoon.
The Lincoln High School varsity cheerleading squad turned a license plate number into a cheer when a man driving a pickup truck involved in the collision fled the scene, according to the Ann Arbor News.
"We just started to chant it so we'd remember it and help them get the guy," senior captain Kimmie Ostrowski told the paper.
Police reports indicated that the man's truck hit the rear of a car stopped at a traffic light at Packard and Thompson streets, near the campus of the University of Michigan, according to the paper. The impact caused a chain reaction with two other cars.
The cheerleading team's coaches tended to a 32-year-old woman who was injured in the crash, the paper reported. The woman was treated at the scene when an ambulance arrived.
Officers traced the license plate number to the pickup truck driver's old home address, where they were able to obtain his new Ann Arbor address, the paper reported.
Lt. Mike Logghe told the paper that the 30-year-old man said he did not think the damage was severe enough to stop. After later reconsidering, he said he was unable to return to the scene because of heavy traffic.
The man was not arrested, but could face charges for leaving the scene of an accident.

I have always wondered what their true purpose was and now my questions have been answered. They are crime fighters.
