TITUSVILLE, Fla. — Titusville police are looking for a man they believe pulled a rifle out of his car and ran off after crashing into another car Monday afternoon.

The crash occurred near the intersection of South Washington Avenue and Garden Street.

Skywitness video shows a white sedan with damage to the front behind a truck.
