Officers didn’t witness any assaults or immediately find any independent witnesses to corroborate the allegations following the crash on the highway near the Lincoln Avenue overpass last Friday, Sept. 1, Police Chief Dean Ackermann said.
A 35-year-old Oakland man whom the woman claimed hit her said she was the one who actually struck him in the face, the chief said.
The other passenger, a 31-year-old Elmwood Park man, told police that he didn’t touch her, either.
Police told them all that they could sign complaints in Municipal Court if they wanted, Ackermann said.
The officers also took the accident report, the chief said, adding that both vehicles were driven from the scene without further incident.
