A man accused of stabbing an off-duty Atlanta police officer during a confrontation after a hit-and-run over the weekend is being sought by authorities.

The incident took place at about 6 p.m. Saturday in DeKalb County, Georgia, when there was a hit-and-run on Interstate 20 Eastbound near Panola Road.

According to the Rockdale County Sheriff’s Office via FOX 5 Atlanta, the incident began with a Dodge Charger colliding with a Chevy Silverado before fleeing.

Subsequently, the off-duty Atlanta police officer, who was driving the Silverado, pursued the Charger into Rockdale County in an attempt to obtain the license plate details.
