The Clay County Sheriff’s Office is actively seeking the public’s assistance in identifying and locating a suspect wanted for a hit-and-run incident that occurred in Middleburg, Florida. The investigation centers on a collision that took place on September 13, 2026, between 3:30 and 3:40 p.m. at the intersection of J. Mark Lane and Nolan Road. According to law enforcement, the victim, a 20-year-old male, was riding a minibike when he was struck by a suspect vehicle while attempting to pass. The suspect vehicle is described as a red sedan, possibly a Toyota Camry, which sustained significant damage to the passenger-side front bumper during the impact.
