Witnesses say they saw someone grab the wheel of a red SUV and forced the vehicle into oncoming traffic. Another driver traveling the opposite way barely escaped getting hit.

"The red SUV was going southbound, it went over the curb, went airborne. I just happened to get out of the way of the car that went over the median," said witness George Feeley.

That person believed to have caused the crash ran away. Police are still looking for that person.
