Colorado Springs police are looking for a driver involved in a hit and run accident that may also be a road rage incident. The suspect was driving a white truck north on Murray Boulevard at just before 5:00 p.m. Monday when he hit a Chevy pick up from behind as the Chevy was pulling onto Murray Boulevard from an apartment complex.
Witnesses tell News First 5 after the initial collision the driver then stayed on the gas pedal and pushed the Chevy around a curve until it rolled.
"Next thing you know, the dude, a white pick up truck pushed him around the curve and flipped him twice," said Tyshika Gray.
