On July 25, 2014, at approximately 05:12 AM, Redwood City CHP Officers received a call of a two vehicle injury hit and run collision on SR-92 westbound (the San Mateo Bridge).
After the collision, the suspect vehicle continued on the San Mateo Bridge until just after the decline. The driver and other possible occupants abandoned the vehicle, a 1988 Toyota, and subsequently fled the scene on foot.
Witnesses describe the driver as a Hispanic male who may have been carrying a handgun. CHP Officers and Foster City PD Officers established a perimeter in the area and attempted to locate the suspect(s), however after approximately 1 hour officers were unable to locate the suspects and the search was discontinued.
The victim driver, who was driving a 1986 Porsche, was transported to Eden Hospital in Castro Valley.
The Toyota was later determined to have been stolen from a residence in Redwood City some time on the evening of 07/24/2014.
This collision remains an ongoing investigation, and anyone with information pertinent to the collision or the hit and run suspects is asked to contact the CHP at 1-800-TELL-CHP or the investigating officer, Officer Tutthill at (650) 369-6261.
