Police are on the hunt for a driver involved in a hit and run crash involving a police cruiser Thursday.
The incident took place along the northbound lanes of Interstate 95; south of the Northwest 119th Street exit.
According to Miami-Dade Police, this was a multi-vehicle crash involving one of their police cruisers that took place just before 7:30 a.m.
Police said the vehicle that caused the crash struck another vehicle which then hit the cruiser. According to authorities, the Miami-Dade officer’s car was side-swiped by the truck.
The cruiser reportedly rolled into the bushes. The officer was uninjured.
The driver responsible for the crash attempted to leave the scene and caused a second crash, police said. Eventually, the driver fled both scenes.
Police said the car they are looking for is a dark-colored, four-door sedan with heavy front-end and rear-end damage.
