DOTHAN, Ala (WDNews) – Dothan Police issued a request for assistance on locating the driver of a light colored pickup truck in connection with the death of Marcus Gaddis, who was fatally struck on Honeysuckle Rd.
There has been some confusion surrounding why the truck was being looked for since first indications were that Gaddis was struck by a dark colored “Tahoe” type vehicle. To clarify the confusion Dothan Police Department has issued a statement, as reads below from Lt. Scott Owens.
“It is normal in a death investigation, in an effort to find the truth in all the details surrounding an incident, to look for people who may have additional information. The social media post on January 8th was no different. This person was driving through the area where Dr. Gaddis was struck by a vehicle. Investigators believed this person may have had information that would aid in the investigation. This information, including but not limited to, the direction of travel of the suspect vehicle helps investigators narrow down and focus resources that will help identify the person driving the vehicle that was involved. When more information is known, we will update the media and the public with that information. This is an ongoing, active, and fluid investigation.”
The investigation is still underway.
