SARASOTA, Fla. — (NBC/WFTS) - Police in Sarasota are looking for the driver of a vehicle that collided with another driver Thursday, sending him flipping multiple times through the air.

The wreck happened at about 7:45 a.m. on US 41 at 14th St. West.

Video from a Sarasota hotel shows a Kia Sedona van turning into on-coming traffic and clipping a car that swerved to avoid it.

The Audi A3 flipped several times, hit a couple of parked cars in the parking lot and landed on its roof.

Much of the crash occurred out of the camera's view.

The van then drives away after a few seconds and merges back into traffic

The 19-year-old driver of the Audi, Jackson Maxwell Kelley, was critically injured.

No one at the hotel was hurt.

Anyone with information about that van or its driver is asked to contact FHP at (941) 751-8530 or Crime Stoppers.
