MURRAY, Utah — One person is in critical condition after a crash in Murray Monday night.

Police say a driver hit a Unified Police Department vehicle in Cottonwood Heights before fleeing.

The driver went the wrong way on the transition ramp from southbound I-15 to eastbound I-215. They collided head-on with two vehicles.

One female victim of unspecified age is in critical condition. A medical helicopter landed on the freeway, but it is not known at this time whether the patient was transported by air.

Police K-9s were also seen near the crash site and appeared to be searching along the freeway.
