A vehicle driving at a high speed hit two cars before crashing into a bank Wednesday night in the Friendship Heights neighborhood bordering Northwest D.C. and Montgomery County, Maryland.

Around 8:30 p.m., the vehicle, a gray Honda CR-V, was allegedly driving south down Wisconsin Avenue at a high rate of speed before side swiping another vehicle and rear ending another.

The CR-V then sped through a red light and crashed into the Provident Bank on the corner of Wisconsin and Willard avenues.

No one was injured in the crash.

The driver of the vehicle — only described by witnesses as a man — then fled the vehicle on foot before police arrived on the scene.

Chevy Chase Village police confirmed with º£½ÇÉçÇøapp that they don’t believe the man was the owner of the car that crashed.

Below is a map of where the incident took place:
