A schoolgirl was taken to hospital after being hit by a car. At round 3.51pm on Tuesday, January 7, police officers in Ellesmere Port responded to reports of a crash on Sutton Way.
When they arrived at the scene, they found a pedestrian had been involved in a crash with a Red Citroen C4 that was being driven by a 33-year-old local man. The pedestrian, a 13-year-old girl, sustained minor injuries and was taken to hospital as a precaution.
She has since been discharged and no arrests have been made at this time. As part of an investigation into the incident, police are now appealing to anyone who may have witnessed the incident, or has any CCTV or dashcam footage which may aid officers in their enquiries, to come forward.
Inspector Anton Sullivan, of the Cheshire Police’s Roads and Crime Unit, said: “In this instance the pedestrian involved did not sustain any life-threatening or life-changing injuries, but given the recent weather conditions, this could have been a different story – which is why are appealing for any information and video footage so we can establish exactly what took place here.
“I would urge anyone who witnessed the collision to get in touch and the same goes for anyone with any dashcam footage which may aid our enquiries.” Anyone with any information in relation to the collision is asked to call 101 or visit www.cheshire.police.uk/tell-us quoting IML-2000771.
