Police have released few details surrounding the collision that occurred around 7:22 p.m. near Ole Johnson Avenue.
In a release Thursday, police reported that the unidentified driver immediately stopped and remained on scene to wait for emergency responders.

No charges have been filed. Police Chief T.C. Kamai said once the investigation has been concluded the results will be forwarded to the District Attorney’s office.
