A semi with a dash cam was in the right place at the right time early this week on North Vernal Avenue. The former Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant building located at 3340 North Vernal Avenue was the victim of a hit and run on Monday afternoon and thanks to the dash cam on a semi that approached the scene there is video evidence of what happened. One of the property owners shared with Evans Family Media on Monday that a commercial truck and trailer was making a turn in the building’s parking lot when it backed into the building causing significant damage. The restaurant building has been vacant and no one was in the building at the time of the incident. The Uintah County Sheriff’s Office confirmed that they have received a copy of the dash cam video that shows the semi with a trackhoe on the trailer backing into the building and that they are working to identify the company and plate. Anyone with information can contact the Uintah County Sheriff’s Office.
