Police are asking for your help finding a driver who took off after smashing into a King County Metro vehicle in Bellevue Thursday night.

Just before 6:30 p.m., a King County vanpool was exiting a Shell gas station at the intersection of 140th Ave NE and NE 8th Street, when a late 90s or early 2000s Ford F-150 sped through the intersection, running into the county car.

Police say the vanpool driver suffered serious injuries and the truck was damaged on its left front corner.
