Police are looking for the driver of a truck that crashed into a Miami barber shop before fleeing the scene.

Officers arrived at the business located at Northwest 7th Street and 48th Avenue early Tuesday morning, where witnesses say the truck sped into the shop before pulling out and driving away at a high rate of speed.

A witness, Debby Lopez, said that she followed the truck, along with her husband, for nearly a mile before finding it near the intersection of Northwest 8th Street and 56th Avenue. The driver had fled the vehicle and is still on the run.

"It’s crazy. It’s it wasn’t something you see everyday or will ever see again in your life," said Lopez. "They didn’t even rob it, it was more like a hate. It was definitely some rival stuff."

Police have not released any information on the driver involved or the amount of damage caused to the shop.
