Police re-issue appeal to find Wallasey hit-and-run driver
POLICE have re-issued an appeal to help catch a hit-and-run driver who left an elderly woman needing hospital treatment.
The incident took place last Thursday, at 10am, on Gorsey Lane at its junction with Willow Close in Wallasey, when the pensioner was struck by what was described as a "dark coloured car."
Officers now believe the vehicle was a Vauxhall Corsa.
The driver, described only as a white male aged 20 to 30 years, stopped briefly at the scene but fled before police arrived.
The woman was taken to hospital where she was treated for a head injury.
Police are urging the driver or anyone who witnessed the incident to contact them on 0151 777 5747 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
