Guelph police say one vehicle has minor damage while an SUV was fleeing officers during a hit-and-run on Thursday.

Shortly after 2:30 p.m., police said an officer was patrolling in the area of Silvercreek Parkway and Woodlawn Road.

While driving in front of the cruiser, a white BMW X3 suddenly accelerated and sideswiped another car as it continued travelling on Silvercreek, police allege.

No one was hurt and police said they did not pursue the SUV in the interest of public safety.

Authorities said three men in their 20s were seen in the vehicle, which had Quebec licence plates.

The SUV was last seen travelling south on the Hanlon Expressway.
