Hampshire & Isle of Wight Constabulary are investigating a collision in which a young boy was reportedly knocked off his scooter by a van driver.
Police were called at 16:50 to a report of a collision on Carvel Lane. This involved a van and a teenage male on a manual scooter, who received minor injuries.
The van was not identified by the victim and did not stop at the scene.
A Police spokesperson has said:
“If anyone witnessed this incident or has any information, call 101 quoting reference 44240546845.”
Majority of Vans drive ruthlessly around the island,
let’s hope they catch the culprit and bang them up.
Failing to STOP at an accident is not on.
Did the van see the scooter? It was dark….
Good point, but it doesn’t change the fact many
vehicles drive too fast.
