Detective Sergeant Steve Holmes said: “Two people have sustained really serious injuries as a result of this collision and it’s really important we’re able to find the driver involved.
“I know these images are not the clearest, but I hope releasing them will trigger someone’s memory.
“I believe the impact of the collision will have left the car involved with damage to it and this would be visible.
“Has a neighbour returned home with damage to their car that wasn’t there before?
“Have they parked their car differently to how they usually do?”
Anyone with information is urged to come forward immediately. This hit-and-run culprit must be found.
