Police are asking for the public\u2019s help in identifying a hit-and-run driver who caused a rollover crash on Seventh Street last month, resulting in moderate injuries to the overturned car\u2019s driver and his passenger.<\/p>\n

The crash happened at about 12:30 p.m. on June 21 near the intersection of Seventh Street and Magnolia Avenue, according to Long Beach police.<\/p>\n

Police said a man in his early 20s was driving a newer model metallic blue Dodge Charger westbound on Seventh Street when he sideswiped a Honda SUV that was heading the same direction, causing it to collide with several parked cars and roll over, police said.<\/p>\n

A 46-year-old man driving the Honda and a 36-year-old woman in the front passenger seat were taken to a hospital for treatment of moderate injuries, police said.<\/p>\n

Surveillance camera footage from a nearby convenience store captured images of the Dodge driver entering the store shortly after the crash, police said.<\/p>\n
