Jacksonville, FL (December 15, 2019) – Around 6 p.m. last evening, December 14, police responded to the scene of a hit-and-run collision on a major highway.

Jacksonville Police responded to the scene of the accident in the westbound lanes of I-10, where they discovered that a vehicle was struck by another.  That vehicle quickly fled the scene of the collision.

Paramedics and various other emergency responders were active at the scene of the investigation. They did not have to issue a roadblock and the delays were minimal.

Those with injuries were assisted, though we do not know how many were injured or the general extent of their injuries.

Police continue to investigate the circumstances of the collision.

Our thoughts are with the injured victims and their families in hopes of a full recovery.
