UPDATED 5.04pm: Police are looking for a Napier man with a Black Power fist tattooed on his face after a police officer was hit by a car at a breath-testing check point.

The officer is in hospital with grazing and gashes to his legs, face and arms after the incident in Clive around 12:30am.

The silver Honda CRV crossed the centreline and hit the officer before taking off at speed.

It was found crashed two kilometres away and police caught one of the passengers - but the other occupants are yet to be found.

Detective Sergeant Jason Crowe says they want to speak to Robbie Richards who has connection to the vehicle.

They're also still looking for the other occupants.
