UPDATE: The driver of the truck has made contact with detectives, deputies say.
Earlier this week, we told you that Calcasieu Parish deputies are looking for a truck they say crashed into the canopy of a conveniene store last week and just drove away.
The incident happened on May 7 around 9 a.m. at a store on La. 27 in Sulphur.
A truck pulled out from under the canopy over the gas pumps, and the tractor loaded on the trailer the truck was pulling hit the canopy and caused extensive damage.
The truck was a white, Ford single-cab one-ton flatbed dually truck. It was pulling a red flatbed gooseneck trailer that was carrying a yellow front-end loader tractor with a backhoe attachment.
Here's a picture:
When the truck drove away, it was headed north on La. 27, deputies say.
Detectives have been trying to find the truck but haven't had any luck. However, after they asked for help from the public, the driver made contact with detectives, they say.
CPSO Cpl. Kerrick Gabriel, Jr., is the lead investigator on this case.
