A SERIOUS hit-and-run in Basildon which saw the victim thrown over the car has seen a fresh appeal to find the driver issued by police.

The man, in his 20s, was crossing the road at the zebra crossing in Timberlog Lane, Basildon when he was hit by a car at around 11pm on Friday, November 17.

He reported that the impact threw him over the car and, as a result, he sustained a leg and arm injury.

The driver of the car, possibly a BMW, did not stop.

Essex Police officer Humza Bokhari, investigating, said: “We have exhausted our enquiries but are hoping that someone may have witnessed the collision or knows who the driver is so that we can speak to them.

“If at all possible, we’d ask anyone who may have dash cam footage of that night to check to see if they have captured anything that could be useful to our investigation.”

The collision occurred  near the junction with Gordon Road.  

Anyone with any information, CCTV, dash cam or other footage in relation to this incident should submit a report online at essex.police.uk or call the force on 101.
