HIT-AND-RUN DRIVER HUNTED AFTER GIRL KNOCKED OFF HER BICYCLE

November 9, 2016

Police traffic patrolPOLICE in Derry are hunting a cowardly hit-and-run driver.

They have launched an appeal for information over the incident which happened in the Main Street area of Eglinton last Friday evening, November 4.

The PSNI say that just after 6.45pm, a 14-year-old girl was knocked off her bike by a car.

Police believe car involved was a black BMW with tinted windows and was driven by a man.

The girl received a scrape to her leg but did not require medical attention.

The driver is now being hunted for careless driving causing injury, failing to report an accident and failing to remain at the scene of an accident.

If caught and convicted he faces a possible prison sentence.

Investigating officer Constable Millar said: “I would appeal to the driver of the car, or anyone who witnessed the incident, to contact Strand Road Police Station on the non-emergency number 101, quoting reference number 1063 of 04/11/16.

“Or if someone would prefer to provide information without giving their details, they can contact the independent charity Crimestoppers and speak to them anonymously on 0800 555 111.”
