NORTH HOLLYWOOD, LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Police are searching for a truck driver after a bizarre hit-and-run in North Hollywood on Sunday.

The victim's wife told ABC7 Eyewitness News a furniture delivery truck was attempting to make a U-turn in a cul-de-sac at Valley Spring Place and Valley Spring Lane at about 7:40 p.m.

The truck ran over some sprinklers, according to the victim's wife, and that's when the homeowner came outside.

As the homeowner approached the truck, the victim's wife said the truck hit him and dragged him for some distance.

It's unclear if the driver realized he hit anyone before leaving the scene.

The homeowner is in stable condition, but suffered serious injuries to his legs.
