CAUGHT ON VIDEO: Police seeking public’s assistance in identifying suspect in connection to hit-and-run in Mississauga

 

Peel Regional Police (PRP) has released a video of a hit-and-run in the hope the public will be able to help them identify the suspect.

On July 20, a 78-year-old woman was walking in the area of Hurontario Street when a vehicle reversed out of a plaza and struck her in the process.

The suspect then picked up the women, who fractured her hip during the fall, and drove her to the hospital—he did not provide any information before leaving the hospital.

The vehicle is a grey Toyota Camry believed to be from 1999 to 2001, and the driver is described as a white man with shoulder-length black hair.

Investigators are also looking to speak with the driver of a dark-coloured Nissan SUV who appears to have protected the victim by blocking a lane of traffic with their vehicle.

Anyone with relevant information is urged to contact the Major Collision Bureau at 905-453-2121, extension 3710.

Additionally, information may be provided anonymously to Peel Crime Stoppers by calling 1-800-222-8477 or visiting their website.
