From Bill Lindelof:
Yolo County authorities are seeking more information to aid them in a court case involving a collision two years ago in which motorcyclists were run down and the hit-and-run vehicle allegedly hidden from police.
The crash, which occurred Aug. 27, 2007 on Russell Boulevard between Davis and Woodland, left one of the motorcycle riders critically injured.
Earlier this month, Noelle Warren was arraigned on a hit-and-run charge and her father, Lorin Warren of Dixon, was arraigned on a charge of being an accessory to a felony. Their arraignments followed several days of a preliminary hearing in which Yolo County Superior Court Judge Arvid J. Johnson found enough evidence for the father and daughter to stand trial.
Both are scheduled to return to court Oct. 30 to set a trial date.
Prosecutors alleged during the court hearing that Noelle Warren was driving her 2003 Chevy Tahoe when the accident occurred. The prosecution also presented evidence that Lorin Warren tried to cover up the accident by having the damage repaired.
According to a Yolo County district attorney press release, it took a week for authorities to find the Chevy Tahoe. Evidence presented at the hearing purported to show that the license plate of one motorcycle left a recognizable imprint on the bumper of the SUV.
Authorities believe that more people with knowledge of the crime have not yet come forward. Witnesses can contact the California Highway Patrol at (530) 662-4685.
