Cleveland Police issue appeal to trace woman in wheelchair after car collides with her in Hartlepool
Police want to trace a wheelchair user after a car drove into her following a collision with a parked Land Rover on the seafront in Hartlepool.
The incident happened on The Front, in Seaton Carew, on Bank Holiday Monday (May 4).
Cleveland Police believe the woman in the wheelchair may have been injured, and want to trace her to check on her welfare.
The force says the driver of a blue Honda Jazz collided with a parked Land Rover before then driving into the woman.
Cleveland Police said in an appeal: “The woman in the wheelchair did not stay at the scene to receive medical treatment, and we hope that she can contact us so that we can check on her welfare.
“Enquiries are ongoing into the collision.”
The woman in the wheelchair, or anyone who knows her, is asked to contact police on the non-emergency number 101, quoting SE26084299.
