A man is clinging to his life,  and Springfield police are looking for the driver of the vehicle that hit him.'

Police say it began as a domestic dispute in Ash Grove on Saturday afternoon,  when a woman and her mother were in a car running from the woman's husband.

The husband chased the two women to an area near Atlantic and Kansas.

At that time, the woman's father and a man, who police believe works for him, drove up to the scene.

Police say the husband sped off, only to return and drive toward the vehicles which were stopped.

He hit the passenger who jumped from the father's vehicle and ran off.

Police are still searching for the husband.  Nobody else was hurt.
