A beige Toyota Camry was travelling northbound on Paris Street when it was t-boned on the passenger side by a westbound green van at the intersection of Paris Street and Brandon Avenue, according to the witness.
The resident says the driver and a passenger of the van immediately fled the scene on foot while a third occupant of the van tried to walk away from the scene, before being apprehended by police.
An RCMP helicopter, several police vehicles and officers on foot were searching a section of Penticton’s south end.
Witnesses say the two occupants in the beige Toyota Camry walked out of the vehicle and appeared to have minor injuries but were transported by B.C. Ambulance.
