Police were notified of the incident at 8pm on Monday evening.
A car is said to have been hit from behind by another on Vangsvegen in Ridabu.
The car that collided with the other was a silver-gray station wagon, according to police.
He fled the scene.
Police are now searching for the station wagon and driver who were involved in the crash.
– We are actively looking for the car, operations manager Kristian Bjaanes told HA.
According to Bjaanes, there shouldn’t be any major damage to the stricken car.
– We are not sure if or how much damage there is to the other car. But there was a real bang, so the person must have noticed, she says.
The person who was in the hit car went to the emergency room with a sore neck, police said.
Bjaanes urges the driver who got away to report to the police.
– We can hope that the driver reads it and feels the need to talk, he says.
Shortly after 21:30, the carabinieri communicate that the driver of the car in question has reported himself and that the police are following up the case.
Bjaanes says the driver, a man, learned of the case through the media.
– He apologized and is sorry, says Bjaanes.
