Police: Wanted hit-and-run driver stole truck shortly before crash

Investigators said the white Ford F-350 is owned by a Vancouver landscape company and was stolen from the 1500 block of Northwest 34th Avenue in Camas about an hour before the crash.  

The driver of a white pickup that was involved in a hit-and-run crash on Wednesday afternoon is still at large and could face charges. The pickup was going east and while attempting to turn left from Highway 14 onto 32nd Street in Washougal, Washington, hit a westbound vehicle causing the latter to roll over. After hitting a concrete barrier and deflating a tire, the pickup drove away. A 17-year-old teen passenger in the other vehicle suffered a head laceration but the driver was unhurt.

The pickup was eventually found abandoned near 22nd and E Streets.
