ROSSVILLE, Ind. (WISH) — The Clinton County Sheriff’s Office is offering a cash reward for information on a hit-and-run that left a 17-year-old boy critically injured Sunday morning.
The sheriff’s office said in a Facebook post deputies were dispatched to the area near U.S. 421 and State Road 26 near Genda Funeral Home in Rossville around 2:30 a.m. on a report of an unresponsive person who might have been hit by a car.
They arrived and located the teen, who’d received life-saving efforts from his mother. Deputies assisted in the efforts until the boy was taken to a hospital. He was said to be in critical condition.

The Clinton County Sheriff’s Office says they are offering a $500 cash award for information on possible suspects.
They described the suspect vehicle as a vehicle with front-end damage to the passenger side.
Anyone with information was asked to contact Det. Greiner at jgreiner@clintonco.com, or call the sheriff’s office at 765-659-6394 or their TIP line at 765-656-8477.
