Investigators are searching for four men who fled the vehicle.

Hamilton police found three guns in a car after a late-night collision in the lower city.

In a release, police said officers responded to reports of a car colliding with a taxi near Grant Avenue around 1:10 a.m. Monday. Witnesses had reported four men fleeing the vehicle.

Police arrived to find a loaded gun visible in the back of a 2012 Acura. Two other guns and ammunition were discovered in the car.
