The North Carolina Highway Patrol is reaching out to the community for assistance with hit and run collisions that have yet to be solved.
Sergeant J.R. Sharlow said he is seeking any help that could lead to new witnesses or any other information that could help in the investigations.
On March 26, 2011, shortly after 1:15 a.m., Sheila Brinson was walking west in the eastbound lane of Branch Avenue in the Lincoln Heights community.
A vehicle traveling west crossed the center line and struck Brinson in the roadway and left the scene.
