“Enquiries are ongoing to locate the vehicle and identify the driver.
“I would urge anyone who was in the area of Parley Cross and saw what happened to please come forward.
“Also, I am keen to hear from any motorists with a dashcam fitted in their vehicle who may have captured any relevant dashcam footage.”
