POLICE are hunting a driver involved in a hit-and-run accident in which a moped rider was injured.
The collision occurred on the A27 Portchester Road, between Cornaway Lane roundabout and the mini roundabout at Condor Avenue, around 3pm on Thursday, September 17.
Police say a car driver involved in the incident failed to stop.
A police spokesman said: "It was reported that a white Audi and the moped were involved in a collision before the Audi, driven by a woman, left the scene.
"The moped rider, a 40-year-old man, suffered minor injuries in the collision.
"It is believed the Audi had '02' in the registration, which may have been part of a personalised number plate.
"Officers investigating the exact circumstances are keen to speak with anyone who witnessed the incident, or anyone who stopped to assist the moped rider in the moments afterwards.
"We also want to urge the driver of the Audi to make contact with us urgently."
Anyone with information can call Hampshire police on 101, quoting reference number 44200360792.
