 The scene of the crime is presented by Billy Johnson Jr. Attorney-at-Law. Earlier this summer, on a night much like tonight, Kentucky State Police responded to a call here near Dee's Grocery. Upon arrival, they discovered Larry Hinkel, victim of an apparent hit-and-run. Hinkel was later pronounced dead at the scene. On Saturday, July 1st, 2017, at approximately 10 p.m., Mr. Larry Hinkel, who was 60 years of age from the Teaberry area of Floyd County, was walking on the shoulder of Kentucky 9-7-9. Shortly after 10 p.m., at some point, an unidentified vehicle struck Mr. Hinkel and he sustained fatal injuries. At this point, the vehicle and operator remained unidentified. Hinkel was not alone that fateful night. He had a friend with him, but the friend has been unable to help police with any information that might lead them to the vehicle or the person's driving the vehicle. The information that I received, he was accompanied by a friend. They had been to the residence of another friend and they were both on the way to return home to their respective residences. If you or anyone you know has any information about the fatal hit-and-run that happened here at Teaberry the night of July 1st, 2017, please call Detective Chris Phillips at the number listed on your screen.
