From: Stephen Coxhead
Dear Hamilton City Council,
I am asking for access to camera footage when a car hit us from behind on the Wairere/Hukanui Road roundabout. We were waiting on Hukanui going north and a car hit us at car rear, but took off straight away and it was dark so we got no info on the other car except it is a black SUV. The date and time was Saturday 4th June, around 8.40pm. .
Yours faithfully,
Stephen Coxhead
Hamilton City Council
