Witnesses told police that two people were seen running from the crashed vehicle, and a witness also reported to police that one of the suspects may have been picked up by another vehicle.

Neither a driver nor any other suspects have been located, according to police.

No injuries were reported, police said.

According to Martin, when police responded to the scene a query of the license plate determined that the vehicle had been reported stolen from Manchester. Manchester Police responded to the scene and took possession of the vehicle, she said.
