The two-vehicle crash happened around 7:15 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 11th at the Seal Beach intersection, the Long Beach Post reports.

A total of three 17-year-old girls and two women in their 20s were injured in the crash.

Two of the 17-year-old girls remain hospitalized in critical condition in the hospital. Meanwhile, police are searching for the suspect in a gold 1987 Mercedes-Benz 300 who fled the scene.

Crash at Seal Beach Intersection on PCH

The vehicle sped through a red traffic light at the intersection of PCH and Main Street. The suspect crashed into a silver car occupied by the five females. The victim’s car was making a turn at the intersection. The suspect’s vehicle wound up crashed into a Seal Beach bus bench in front of the Chase bank on PCH. The suspect exited the vehicle and fled on foot. The man is described as a Hispanic aged 18 to 20 years old and roughly 5 foot 10 inches tall. He was wearing a maroon shirt.
