Suspect sought in alleged Hilton Head hit-and-run | Hilton Head Island Packet

An alleged drunk driver slammed head-on into a passing motorist on Dillon Road near Kids Way late Friday. No one was seriously injured.

Philip Finkle, 61 of Hilton Head, was heading south on Dillon Road when he saw a red pickup swerve off the right side of the road, veer across the road and run off the left side before coming back onto the wrong side of the road, hitting him head-on, according to an incident report from the Beaufort County Sheriff's Office.

Finkle was taken to the hospital for minor injuries.

The accident caused an estimated $4,000 worth of damage to his vehicle, according to the report.

The suspect fled the scene on foot before officers arrived. Keys were left in the ignition of the pickup and beer bottles and cans -- some empty, some half-consumed and some full -- were found on the floor of the vehicle, according to the report.

No arrests have been made.
