An Aug. 1 hit-and-run injury crash has been solved thanks to an anonymous tip from the public, according to the North Dakota Highway Patrol.

Investigators located and identified the vehicle involved in the crash. The driver, a 58-year-old Minot man, was charged with duty in accident involving injury, Class A misdemeanor; failure to give immediate notice of accident, $50; failure to yield right of way, $40; and driving without liability insurance, $150.

A passenger in the vehicle, a 58-year-old Minot woman, was charged with hindering law enforcement/providing false information, a class A misdemeanor.

Assistance from the public helped with solving the case, according to the Highway Patrol.
