Police looking for 2 people who fled scene after causing semi truck to overturn

Police in Rochester, Minnesota, are searching for the driver and passenger of a white car that crashed into a tractor trailer, causing it to overturn, and fled the scene on foot.

The incident happened on Saturday afternoon, on the northbound lanes of Highway 52, near the Apache Mall.

According to ABC 6 News, witnesses say a black male and black female passenger were arguing in a white car before swerving into a tractor trailer. The impact of the crash caused the truck to lose control and overturn on the highway.
