A hit-and-run incident occurred today on the westbound lanes of U.S. Highway 50 near the Bradshaw Road North on-ramp in Sacramento, CA. The collision involved a silver sedan that spun out of control and collided with an unknown vehicle, which then fled the scene. Fortunately, no injuries were reported.

Emergency services responded promptly at approximately 9:43 PM. The silver sedan was found facing westbound in the slow lane, showing signs of significant damage. Fire services were dispatched as a precaution due to smoke coming from the vehicle.

Witnesses reported seeing the unknown vehicle make a sudden maneuver before the collision, but details about the fleeing vehicle remain unclear. The California Highway Patrol is working to gather further information regarding the hit-and-run vehicle.
