Police appeal after elderly man injured in Doncaster motorbike hit and run
Police are looking for two people who were on a blue moped at the time of the crash
Police have launched an appeal to trace a motorcyclist who hit an elderly man in Doncaster last month, before fleeing the scene.
The victim was crossing Station Road in Dunscroft, near the junction where it meets The Oval, on Wednesday 18 June around 12.30pm when he was in a collision with a blue moped.
The person riding the bike is yet to be identified, but is thought to have been a white male teenager wearing a balaclava and a grey top and aged around 15 to 17 years old.
A passenger on the back of the bike is described as a white male teenager with light or blonde hair. He was wearing a blue t-shirt, holding a mobile phone filming a red motorcross bike behind and was aged around 15 to 16 years old.
Both suspects were wearing black shorts.
PC Gabrielle Marriott, of South Yorkshire Police, said:
"This collision has had a huge impact on the victim. He's been left in so much pain that he has been unable to get in out of bed due to the level of bruising it has caused.
"The rider showed absolutely no regard for the victim's welfare, fleeing the scene following the collision.
"As well as the physical impact of his injuries, this collision has also had a mental impact on the victim and it has completely affected his day-to-day life."
