The 72-year-old woman badly injured when a car failed to stop in Horton Road, Datchet last month has been released from hospital.

But police have renewed appeals for witnesses to the accident which happened at about 8.45pm on Saturday, September 21 near the Tesco Express.

The victim was crossing the road when a dark-coloured vehicle collided with her. The vehicle was then driven down a side road onto Ditton Road towards the B470.

The injured woman was treated at the acute St Mary's Hospital in London.

Investigating officer PC Faye Aspinall of the Joint Operations Unit for Roads Policing based at Taplow said: “We now believe that the vehicle involved was a black Honda CR-V with a distinctive noisy exhaust which may have been damaged.

“I am appealing to anybody who was in the area of Horton Road at the time of the incident and believes they witnessed this to contact police.

“I am particularly keen to hear from anybody who may have dash-cam footage of the incident to check this and contact us if they have anything that can assist the investigation.

“You can call the 24-hour non-emergency number 101, quoting reference 43190292880 or call the independent charity Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.”
