WEST HARTFORD, Conn. (WTNH) -- A five car crash closed two lanes of traffic on I-84 westbound in West Hartford for about an hour Thursday night.

Police say 29-year-old Halloran Zanone and another car were racing down I-84 east when the other driver lost control and sideswiped a third car.

The car then headed over the center median, rolled over several times and struck two cars traveling westbound.

The driver fled the scene.

Zanone was arrested on the scene and police continue to search for the driver of the other car.

Officials say all the reported injuries are non-life threatening.

The right and center lanes were closed on I-84 westbound in the area of exit 44 due to debris in the roadway. Both lanes were closed for about an hour.
