MANATEE — Deputies arrested a 46-year-old man after his car collided with a patrol car and he fled the scene, according to the Manatee County Sheriff’s Office.

Wayne Miller, 46, of Bradenton, was driving a gold Buick in the 2200 block of 14th Street West just after midnight Saturday when he turned left in front of the deputy’s patrol car.

Deputies found the Buick’s keys in Miller’s pocket and Miller’s cell phone was on the driver’s seat.

He faces charges of leaving the scene of an accident with property damage and failing to yield the right of way. The patrol car had about $1,000 in damage.
