Troopers need your help to find the the driver they say is responsible for a hit and run accident that sent multiple people to the hospital Monday afternoon.

State police say it happened along Route 152 near the Huntington Sand and Gravel in Lavalette. We're told a motorcycle and two cars collided and the driver of a 1995 gold Aurora then took off.

Troopers say the vehicle was found a short time later, but they are still looking for the driver. If you have any information, call the Wayne County detachment of the State police at 304-272-5131.

Both the driver and passenger of the motorcycle were taken to the hospital and are expected to be okay.
