ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — The Colorado Bureau of Investigation issued a Medina Alert after an SUV rammed a vehicle off the road in Englewood Friday, seriously injuring two people.

The driver of a 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee also struck the victim’s vehicle multiple times and then took off after the crash.

It happened around 8:30 p.m. on US Highway 285 (Jefferson Avenue) and South Downing Street.

Authorities said the driver of the Grand Cherokee caused the victim’s vehicle to crash into a light pole. The two people in the victims’ car were seriously injured.

They are looking for the driver of the black 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee.

The Jeep should have front-end damage from the incident.

Anyone with information about the crash or vehicle is asked to call 911 or Englewood PD at 303-761-7410.

A Medina Alert honors the memory of Jose Medina, a 21-year-old valet driver who was killed by a hit-and-run driver in 2011.
