Police in Vancouver, Washington, are searching for a man accused of repeatedly ramming a rideshare car carrying his wife in a violent attack captured on dashcam footage. The incident unfolded just before dawn on Nov. 15, when a woman traveling home from work became the unintended target of a collision authorities say was deliberate and sustained.
According to Vancouver Police, the suspect crashed into the rideshare car four separate times, striking it hard enough to shatter the rear windshield and push the vehicle toward a steep embankment roughly 20 feet below. The impact left the driver injured and struggling to regain control as the car was forced dangerously close to the drop-off.
Despite the damage, the driver managed to escape the immediate area and continued to a nearby police station for help. She was later taken to a hospital for treatment. Authorities did not specify whether the passenger—the suspect’s wife—suffered injuries, but emphasized that the driver’s decision to flee likely prevented more serious harm.
Police are classifying the case as domestic violence, noting that the suspect fled the scene before officers arrived. His identity has not been released publicly, and investigators are now working with surrounding agencies to track him down. Officials have also taken steps to ensure the safety of both the driver and passenger as the investigation continues.
Dashcam footage from the crash shows the force of the impacts and the extent of the damage inflicted on the vehicle. Police said the driver’s actions demonstrated composure under extreme stress and may have saved the passenger’s life.
The investigation remains active, with officers urging anyone with information to contact authorities as they work to locate the suspect and determine the full circumstances surrounding the attack.
