Manhunt launched after biker seriously injured in hit-and-run on Scots street

A motorcyclist has been seriously hurt after an early morning hit and run on a Scots street.

Cops were called to reports of the crash on Greenhill Road, near the junction with Drums Road, in Paisley around 6am on Friday July 2.

The 61-year-old biker had been on a blue Yamaha YZF when he was hit by a blue Renault Clio, with the driver then fleeing the scene.

Medics at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow are now treating the man for serious injuries.

Sergeant Jon Mochan, of Police Scotland’s Road Policing Unit, said: “Our enquiries into this incident are ongoing and we are working to identify the car involved.

“Anyone with information is urged to come forward.

"In particular we would be keen to speak to anyone who may have seen a blue Renault Clio being driven in the area before or after the crash.

"In addition, I would ask that anyone with information regarding a Renault Clio car which may have recently sustained damage to the front of the vehicle, or been recently repaired, contact police"

“We would also be keen to hear from anyone who may have dashcam or private CCTV footage from the area.

“Anyone with information can call 101, quoting incident 0527 of 2 July.”
