Hit-and-run crash damages Lido Shores home

A Lido Shores homeowner was left with a mystery and a heavily damaged privacy wall Aug. 19 when she found that a truck had crashed into her property, Sarasota Police said.

The owner of the home, known as the Umbrella House, in the 1300 block of Westway Drive, told investigators she returned to her home at about 5:20 a.m. to find a Ford F-350 under the rubble of a portion of a concrete block wall behind her house, according to a police report.  

The driver of the truck apparently left the scene after the crash. The report says the truck was traveling northbound at about 30 mph on John Ringling Parkway when it “failed to negotiate the right curve and traveled straight into the privacy wall,” the report states. Damage to the wall was estimated at $15,000. The truck sustained an estimated $30,000 damage. 

Police found a U.S. Department of Transportation registration number on the truck assigned to TurboHaulers Inc., of Chicago, the report said.

About two hours after the crash, the owner of the truck, identified as Shakhriyor Kadirov of Davie, Florida, called Sarasota Police, initially to report the truck as stolen, the report said. When he was told the truck had been involved in a crash, Kadirov “no longer seemed to be concerned about reporting the vehicle as stolen,” the report concludes.

No arrests are expected. The property owner did not wish to press charges, a police spokeswoman said.
