Date published: 14 August 2015


A man is in a critical condition following a hit and run in Littleborough.

At 10.10pm on Thursday 13 August 2015, a 52-year-old man was walking on Featherstall Road near to the junction of Whitelees Road, Littleborough when there was a collision with a silver Mitsubishi Shogun Estate. The car registration was YS53 YFK.

The man is currently in hospital in a critical but stable condition.

The car also collided with a lamppost which went through the window of a house on Featherstall Road. No one in the house was injured.

After the collision, three men were seen to get out of the car and run off. Police are now trying to trace them.

It is thought the car has recently been sold and police are appealing to anyone who knows who bought it to call police.

Anyone with information should phone the Serious Collision Investigation Unit on 0161 856 4742.
