A Cadiz business sustained damage to the roof Saturday when a tractor trailer struck it while backing up.

A news release from the Cadiz Police Department says the incident happened a little after 3:15pm at Cadiz Eye Clinic at 304 Main St. Police say a witness saw a tractor-trailer back into the building and cause the damage and that a vehicle matching the description was found nearby.

The driver of the rig, 25-year old John Pepper of Cadiz, first denied having done the damage, but officers found pieces of the rear on top of the trailer. Pepper was not cited for any crime, but police say charges could be added later.
