Police are appealing to anyone who has information to come forward
A 14-year-old girl was struck by an object sticking out of a passing truck during a "traumatic incident" in a Nottingham suburb. The collision occurred when the girl was walking along Strelley Road towards Strelley.
The driver of the truck slowed down following the impact but then drove off from the scene. The incident happened at about 4pm on Wednesday, January 8. The girl was taken to hospital for her injuries, which were not serious. Officers have now appealed to anyone who has any information about the collision to come forward. PC Martin Giddy, who is investigating the incident, said: "This was a traumatic incident for the girl involved and we are doing everything we can to trace the driver involved.
"It happened along a busy road and we would ask anyone who witnessed the incident to please come forward. Likewise, we are very keen to speak to anyone who thinks they may have captured the truck or the incident on their dash cam."
