Police are trying to find out who left a burning car on a highway in Vienna township late Tuesday.

First responders were called out to Route 11 at around 11:30 p.m. under the Route 82 overpass to investigate a car that had caught fire. What they didn't find was the driver.

Vienna police tell 21 News that witnesses saw three people get out of the car and hop into a black Mercedes, that drove off.

Route 11 was temporarily shut down until the car could be removed and has since reopened.

Police say they're looking into whether the car may have been stolen.
