BANNING, Calif. (KABC) -- The highway patrol is asking for the public's help, hoping a tip will lead them to the hit-and-run driver who crashed into a car driven by an 86-year-old survivor of Pearl Harbor.
The incident being investigated occurred Thursday at 9:45 a.m. on Palm and De Waide avenues in Hemet.
The driver of a 1998 Honda stolen from a parking lot in Bulmont collided with a Dodge Neon driven by Benjamin Weat a resident of a retirement home in Hemet.
"Both vehicles were disabled at the scene. He did flee the scene, and we have set up a perimeter for several hours looking for the suspect but were unable to locate him," said Scott Beauchene of the California Highway Patrol.
The driver of the Honda may have been injured but he left the accident site on foot. He is described as a Hispanic male, 5 feet 6 inches to 5 feet 10 inches tall, with short black hair, with a tattoo on the left side of his head and may answer to the name Angel.
