A woman was left with a broken ankle after
trying to save her dogs in a hit and run incident.
Police are hunting for the driver of a silver
car who hit the 26-year-old as she walked her dogs along Boxley
Road, Maidstone, near the junction of Curzon Road, at
about 2.30pm on Monday, February 18.
The victim managed to push her dogs out of the
way but was hit as the car came out of Curzon Road and carried
straight on over Boxley Road, into Gladstone Road.
Police are also appealing for witnesses -
including a "Good Samaritan" who took the victim home - to come
forward.
Police Constable Ian Jackson said: “The
collision happened in broad daylight so I’m hopeful that there are
some witnesses who can provide some information to help our
investigation.
"We would also like to speak to the man who
kindly helped the victim, to see if he can provide any additional
information, and to offer him our thanks.”
Anyone with any information is asked to
contact PC Jackson by calling 101, quoting incident reference
18-0910.
