Police need help to find driver who ran red light and crashed - and then sped off

Police investigating a crash in which a driver left the scene are appealing for the public’s help to find the vehicle involved.

At 9.20pm on Thursday, March 26 the victim, a 48-year-old woman, was driving along Moorbridge Lane in Stapleford.

The bridge there is currently undergoing repair work and only one lane is operating which is traffic light controlled.

The victim was driving through on a green light when a red coloured car drove towards her at speed and the two vehicles crashed. The red car did not stop and drove off in the direction of Sandiacre.

She was left with minor injuries and was badly shaken, according to Derbyshire Constabulary.

Police are keen to speak to anyone who may have been in the area at the time, in particular drivers who may have caught the incident or the red car on dashcam.

They also want to hear from anyone who may have seen a vehicle matching this description with substantial damage to its front.

Anyone with any information is asked to contact Derbyshire Police including reference 20*164756.

You can also anonymously contact the independent charity Crimestoppers, on 0800 555 111 or by visiting www.crimestoppers-uk.org
