According to police, the driver of a white 2006 Ford F-150 disregarded a stop sign at the intersection and crashed into a white 2018 Nissan Frontier heading eastbound on West Burcham.

Police said the truck crashed into the Nissan, which then struck a curb and rolled onto its roof. The truck then crashed into a two-foot retaining wall, police said.

Authorities said the driver of the truck did not make an attempt to check on the other driver or provide any information, instead running away on foot.

The driver of the Nissan, a 36-year-old woman, was assisted out of her vehicle by an EMS crew and originally declined going to the hospital. The woman eventually was taken to Mission Trail Baptist Hospital with minor injuries, police said.

Police said when located, the driver of the white Ford F-150 will face a charge of failing to stop and render aid.
