A 12-year-old girl has been left in critical condition following a hit and run collision in Barnet.

Police rushed to Colney Hatch Lane at 10.12pm on Saturday following reports of a car crash between a Vauxhall Astra and Bentley Continental.

A girl, who had been a passenger in the Astra, is fighting for her life in hospital after sustaining critical injuries.

Her family are aware and are being supported by specialist officers.

The Bentley is thought to have contained two males, both of whom left the scene on foot prior to the arrival of police. The car has not been reported as lost or stolen.

Detectives from the Serious Collision Investigation Unit are investigating and they are appealing for any witnesses, and anyone with dash cam or mobile phone footage, to contact them by calling 101 giving ref number CAD 7888 20AUG22.
