TWO men have been arrested after another was left with serious injuries in a suspected hit-and-run in Southampton.

The victim, in his 50s, was crossing Civic Centre Road at the junction with Havelock Road yesterday just before 10pm.

A dark coloured BMW hit him, did not stop, and drove off in the direction of Cumberland Place.

Police arrested a 53-year-old man from Kent on suspicion of conspiring to cause grievous bodily harm with intent, and a 50-year-old man from Kent on suspicion of grievous bodily harm with intent.

Both remain in custody at this time while enquiries continue.

A Hampshire Constabulary spokesperson said: "Did you see the incident? Do you have dash cam or CCTV footage showing what happened?
