FORT WORTH, TX – A 29-year-old man, identified as a military veteran, was taken to a hospital after a hit-and-run collision in Fort Worth last Sunday, Sept. 27. 

The crash happened around 9:30 p.m. on the 1200th block of North Freeway, Fox4News said. A driver of a vehicle sideswiped a motorcycle, ridden by the veteran, who then fell from his bike.
