A hit-and-run incident occurred today on the northbound lanes of Interstate 880 near the Whipple Road off-ramp in Union City, CA. The collision involved two vehicles: a white Chevrolet Camaro and a white International bobtail truck. The incident took place at approximately 3:33 PM when the bobtail truck struck the Camaro and then left the scene.
Fortunately, no injuries were reported as a result of the collision. The Chevrolet Camaro was pushed to the right-hand side of the road, where it remained until emergency services arrived. The California Highway Patrol responded quickly to the scene, assessing the situation and managing traffic effectively.
Witnesses indicated that the bobtail truck did not stop after the collision, leading to the classification of the incident as a hit-and-run.

By 3:57 PM, the Camaro had been safely moved to the right-hand side of the road, and all lanes were reopened for traffic. The California Highway Patrol worked diligently to clear the area and restore the flow of traffic without further complications. A tow truck was called to assist with the Chevrolet Camaro, which had been blocking one of the lanes during the incident.
