A hit-and-run incident occurred today on the Interstate 880 North offramp at Whipple Road in Union City, CA, involving three vehicles. The incident began around 10:14 AM when a black Tesla, driven erratically, collided with two other vehicles. Witnesses reported that the driver of the Tesla was behaving aggressively, attempting to carjack other vehicles on the offramp, which created a chaotic situation with multiple parties involved.
