Police are investigating a hit-and-run crash in Waterbury on Wednesday morning and they are looking for the driver who ran from the scene.
Police said a black Acura going west on Plank Road crossed the center line into the lane of a white Honda Accord, which tried to avoid the crash, and the vehicles collided head-on. The fire department extricated the driver and front passenger of the white Honda Accord.
The driver of the black Acura ran before police arrived and a Police K-9 search is underway, police said.
Both vehicles sustained significant damage and all passengers in both vehicles were injured and transported to local area hospitals.
Plank Road from Scott Road to Harpers Ferry Road was closed for the investigation and drivers were urged to avoid the area while the investigation was underway. The road has reopened.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Waterbury Police Department Detective Bureau at 203-574-6941 or CrimeStoppers at 203-755-1234.
