Appeal launched for hit and run driver

Tue, 04 Mar 2014

Police are hunting for a driver who is believed to have caused two hit and run road traffic collisions on Sunday.

At around 3.25am a parked vehicle was hit on the Douglas to Laxey Road, causing damage to the driver’s mirror.

Moments later another vehicle parked around 500 metres up the road was also hit – this time causing extensive offside damage and potentially writing it off.

Witnesses say a vehicle was then seen with its hazard lights on in the wrong carriageway near to the Church Road junction of Baldrine.

Police say it is too much of a coincidence and believe the offending vehicle was silver in colour and has sustained damage to its near front side.

Anyone who has any information has been asked to contact Ramsey Police Station or Crimestoppers.
