<P class=MsoBodyText>Lexington Police are looking for the driver of an H2 Hummer
that plowed through a section of a backyard privacy fence.</P>
<P class=MsoBodyText>It happened just before 3:00am on Saturday on Orchard
Avenue, a narrow, one-waystreet in Lexington near the University of
Kentucky campus.</P>
<P class=MsoBodyText>Homeowner Barb Cook said it sounded like a bomb went
off. She didn't know what had destroyed a large section of her fence until
she checked the video from her home security camera system.</P>
<P class=MsoBodyText>The videotape showed the headlights of an H2 Hummer
bouncing around as it took out the fence. The vehicle came into view at
the end of its run as it jumped up over a landscaping curb and drove off with
boards falling off of the vehicle.</P>
<P class=MsoBodyText>It appeared the vehicle may have been white or canary
yellow in color with the additional lighting grid on the front roof of the
vehicle. If you see a vehicle matching that description, try to get a
license plate number and call Detective Pam Walsh with the Lexington Police
Department at 859-258-3617.</P>
<P class=MsoBodyText>The case is being investigated as a hit-and-run.</P>
<P class=MsoBodyText>The incident is more than a costly inconvenience for Barb
Cook. She rescues Afghan Hound dogs and desperately needs to be able to
use her backyard for her rescue operation. Until her fence is replaced or
repaired, she can't use her backyard for her dogs.</P>
<P class=MsoBodyText>She wants her fence fixed and the driver who damaged it
caught and brought to justice.</P></DIV>
