A Navy Humvee crashed into the back of a Japanese family’s car and left the scene Tuesday night, slightly injuring two children, according to Okinawa police. The sailor was later arrested by military police. The incident received broad coverage in local media Wednesday, coming at a time when the U.S. military and Japan have locked horns on basing issues on Okinawa.

The crash occurred at about 10:55 p.m. on Route 329 in the village of Henoko, near Camp Schwab, a police spokesman said Wednesday. According to the police report, the car’s driver, a 45-year-old Henoko man, had just pulled out from a local laundromat and was driving southbound when the Navy vehicle struck it and then sped away.

The man was not injured, but his 2-year-old son was treated for cuts to his forehead at a nearby hospital. His 10-year-old son had a bruised nose, according to the police report. Police said the compact car sustained major damage, including a crushed rear end.

A woman who was driving in the northbound lane reported the accident to police. She told them the Humvee continued heading south after the incident. About seven miles down the road, an abandoned Navy Humvee with a damaged front bumper and headlight was found parked with its engine still running, the police spokesman said.

According to a Navy news release, the driver of the Humvee was found nearby and arrested by military police.
