A hit-and-run incident involving one vehicle occurred early this morning at the intersection of Virginiatown Road and Hungry Hollow Road in Lincoln, CA.

By 7:57 AM, the California Highway Patrol confirmed that the situation had transitioned from a traffic collision to a hit-and-run with no injuries.
