Officers on the Isle of Wight are investigating a road collision which left a 17 year-old girl with a concussion.

At some point between 00:40am and 01:30am on Saturday 10 November the teenager was crossing the road at the Newport Road junction with May Close in Godshill when she was involved in a collision with a blue or grey Peugeot hatchback car.

A woman who was in the car stopped at the scene before leaving. She is described as:

  • White.
  • Slim.
  • Aged in her thirties or forties.
  • Around 5ft 6ins tall.
  • She had a long brown ponytail.

We are keen to speak to the woman who stopped at the scene as she may be able to help us to establish what happened.

The teenager was taken to hospital where she was treated for a severe concussion and is now recovering at home.
