Hit & Run Animal RTA
On Wednesday 20th February 2008 at approximately 6.00 p.m. a man driving a red, older type BMW car, collided with a New Forest Pony. The accident happened at Amies Wood, Linwood, near the Red Shoot public house. The driver has not reported the accident. The pony suffered a broken leg and was found in the ditch. She was later humanely destroyed by the Agister.
A witness saw the accident but being very distressed by the accident, failed to get the registration number of the vehicle.
The vehicle would have been badly damaged in the collision. Has anyone seen this damaged vehicle - perhaps on someones drive or has a garage taken the vehicle for repair or possibly scrap? Because of the location and time of day, the driver is likely to be local and probably on his way home from work.
We, and the Police are keen to trace this driver. If you have any information which may help us track him down, please contact WPC Alison Tilbury at Hythe Police Station on 08450 454545 or the Verderers Office on 02380 282052.
