Appeal for witnesses following Leigh Park collision


We are appealing for witnesses and information following a collision on Dunsbury Way, Leigh Park shortly after 5pm on Tuesday 17 September.

During the incident, it’s reported that two children – one aged under ten and one aged in their teens - were struck by a vehicle between the junctions of High Lawn way and Fulflood Road.

Thankfully, they suffered only minor injuries during the incident.

The driver initially exited the vehicle, before then getting back inside and driving off, failing to exchange any details prior to doing so.

The vehicle is described as a 4x4, possibly a Land Rover Discovery or similar, with blacked-out windows.

The driver is described as wearing black shorts, black top and a cap. We would like to speak to him in connection with this incident.

Were you in the area at the time of the incident? Did you witness the collision, or remember a vehicle in the area, matching the above description?

Do you have any footage of the incident, including dash cam, mobile phone, doorbell camera or CCTV?

If you have any information which could assist us in our investigation, please call 101 and quote incident number 44240400237.
