The driver of a stolen truck hit a police officer who was on patrol overnight in Southeast Portland, authorities said.

Portland police said the driver T-boned the passenger side of the officer’s car about midnight in the Buckman neighborhood of the inner east side.

The truck driver ran away, police said, and paramedics treated the officer at the scene. Another officer later drove him to a hospital for treatment of injuries that didn’t threaten his life.

Police unsuccessfully searched for the driver. The truck, a Ford F-350 stolen in Vancouver on Feb. 1, was seized as evidence, according to police.

Police have not released a description of the truck driver. They also haven’t publicly identified the officer who was hurt.

Police urge anyone who has information about the crash or truck driver to call 503-823-3333. Callers should reference case No. 20-54823.
