A 30-year-old woman has been arrested after a pedestrian was hit by a car and left critically injured.

A man, 39, was struck by a grey Mini Cooper while using a crossing on Elmfield Road in Dogsthorpe, Peterborough, at about 02:00 BST on Sunday.

The driver, from Peterborough, was arrested later that day on suspicion of causing serious injury by dangerous driving, driving while unfit through drink or drugs, failing to stop after an accident and driving without a licence.

She has been bailed until 22 August.

Police said the driver had briefly stopped at the scene but left before officers arrived.

The man remains in Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge.

Officers have appealed for anyone with information to come forward.
