Nearly two months have passed since a woman was injured in a hit-and-run back in late August and she still remains hospitalised, in serious condition. No suspects have been detained in the incident, police have confirmed.
In response to queries from the Cayman Compass regarding the status of the case, police on Tuesday said the investigation into the accident remains ongoing.
“We are continuing to appeal for any witnesses to the incident to contact the Traffic & Roads Policing Unit at 649-6254,” the brief statement from police said.
The woman was injured after being struck by a reddish-coloured SUV on Shedden Road in George Town.
The incident happened shortly after 8pm on 31 Aug. No description of the suspect was available, police said.
It was reported that the woman was crossing the road near the Edward Street junction, when she was struck by the SUV, which was travelling west.
The vehicle then turned onto Edward Street and left the scene.
The woman was transported to the Cayman Islands Hospital via ambulance.
Anyone who may have seen the incident, or has any information on the vehicle involved, is asked to contact the Traffic & Roads Policing Unit or provide anonymous tips directly to the Royal Cayman Islands Police Service via the confidential Tip Line at 949-7777, or via the RCIPS website.
