BILLINGS — One person was sent to a Billings hospital with minor injuries after a hit and run accident at the intersection of fifth Street West and Grand Avenue around 3:30 p.m. Saturday, according to Billings Police Sgt. Clyde Reid.

Reid said the driver of an RV ran a red light at the intersection and struck a red Ford Explorer and fled the scene of the crash.

Police were not able to apprehend the suspects. Reid said the RV was towed off the street.
