Thames Valley Police have releasing CCTV footage following an incident in which a car collided with a pedestrian in Copyground Lane, High Wycombe.
At around 6.50pm on Tuesday 9th February 2016 a 50 year old man was crossing Copyground Lane when he was involved in a collision with a black saloon car.
The man suffered knee injuries requiring hospital treatment. He has since been discharged.

I would urge the driver to come forward.
I would also like to speak to the young man who was also trying to cross the road behind the victim and who went to the man’s assistance after the collision. We would ask him to come forward as he is believed to be a witness to this incident who may hold key information which could help us to find the driver.‘
