Police are looking for a 23 year old Thunder Bay man who has been identified as the driver of a black Nissan sedan that was involved in three separate collisions last evening in the Grandview area of the city's north side.

The first collision was called in to police at 8:50 p.m. A white Land Rover being driven by a 54 year old female was eastbound on Van Norman Street. The black Nissan sedan was southbound on Madeline St and ran through the stop sign without stopping, hitting the Land Rover squarely on the driver's side. There were five occupants in the Land Rover, three of them receiving what turned out to be minor injuries.
The driver of the Nissan fled the scene without stopping.

The second collision was called in to police at 8:53 p.m. The same black Nissan had struck a parked Ford Fiesta at Grandview Mall, causing extensive damage. Witnesses state the driver of the Nissan did not stop, and immediately fled the scene.

The third collision took place at 8:56 p.m. at the intersection of Van Norman and Duke Streets. The black Nissan was southbound on Duke St and did not stop for the stop sign at Van Norman Street, then striking a black Honda Civic on the front right side. The male driver of the Civic, the lone occupant, received minor injuries from the crash.

The driver of the Nissan fled on foot prior to arrival of police. The vicinity was checked without success. Investigation is continuing.
