A HIT and run driver who left a female motorist shaken on a road was being hunted by police yesterday.
The woman was driving an X-type Jaguar towards the Malt Shovel public house at Wham, near Barnard Castle, County Durham, when a vehicle came over the brow of a hill and swerved into her.
She was unable to get details of the vehicle before it drove off at about 6.30pm on Sunday, December 5.
Sergeant Mark Jagodzinski, of Barnard Castle police, said: "We have made extensive inquiries in the area but been unable to find any trace of the other vehicle, which must have been damaged.
"We are asking anyone who knows of a vehicle which was damaged around that time to contact us. The woman in the Jaguar was shaken but was not injured."
Anyone who knows of a vehicle that might have been involved is asked to call PC Daniel McCauley on (01833) 637328.
