A hit-and-run incident occurred today on the northbound lanes of Interstate 680 at the Stone Valley Road off-ramp in Alamo, CA, resulting in significant damage but no injuries reported. The incident took place around 11:29 PM when a black Lexus collided with an unknown vehicle, subsequently striking two light poles before coming to a stop.

Emergency services responded promptly to the scene, where the Lexus was found blocking the off-ramp lane. Witnesses reported seeing a male suspect fleeing the area shortly after the collision. The status of the other vehicle involved remains unclear, as it left the scene before authorities arrived.

Due to the extensive damage to the Lexus, a tow truck was requested to remove the vehicle. The California Department of Transportation was notified about the downed light poles, which could affect visibility and safety in the area.

As a result of the incident, traffic was temporarily impacted, with lane closures implemented to facilitate the removal of the damaged vehicle and assess the downed poles. Authorities are working to clear the scene and restore normal traffic flow as quickly as possible.

Motorists are advised to exercise caution when traveling through the area and to be aware of potential delays as cleanup efforts continue.
