Crash occurred Sunday at SR-46, Upsala Road

SANFORD, Fla. – Sanford police are searching for the suspect vehicle in a hit-and-run crash that left a man critically injured earlier this week.

Shortly after midnight on Sunday, a white pickup truck drove away from the scene of the crash at the intersection of State Road 46 and Upsala Road, police said.

The injured man — identified by his family as Josh Gleason — was ejected from his own truck and placed in a medically-induced coma at the hospital, according to a GoFundMe set up to help pay his medical bills. The truck that Gleason was driving is pictured at the top of this story.

News 6 was shown surveillance video from a business which appears to show the suspect vehicle, yet detectives have cautioned they cannot verify that the images “depict the vehicle involved in the hit and run.”
