Horse Rescue and Sanctuary in Wildomar, California desperately needs your help because of a hit and run driver that fled the scene running down approximately 300 ft. of fencing.
On March 5, 2016 at approximately 2:30 AM a 2005 Silver Chevy truck ran over approximately 300 ft. of horse wire fencing and poles and damaged approximately 600 ft. of horse wire. After damaging the fencing lunged onto Bundy Canyon Rd. in Wildomar running into a tree and damaging the across the street neighbors fencing. The driver of the truck fled. The owner of the vehicle's name is Steve Turrey. The license plate is 7W50934, the serial number of the truck is 1GCHK23235F959242. The truck is currently being stored at Lears Towing in Lake Elsinore, phone number. 951-674-1516 and has not been claimed yet. That is all of the information we have been given.
Our insurance does not cover replacing the poles and horse wire or fixing it. Our understanding the owner who at this present time can't be found doesn't have insurance either. The estimate to get it fixed by a fencing company is approximately $5,000 to possibly $6,000. If we can't get it professionally fixed we can have volunteers do it but we need donations. This would also be an excellent project for the Boy Scouts or an Eagle Scout project.
We appreciate any amount of money donated and help. We need to be able to get the fencing up ASAP to keep the animals in and not go on the busiest road in Wildomar, California known as Bundy Canyon Rd.
