Renewed appeal following serious collision in Faversham

Officers have renewed their appeal for dashcam footage and witnesses after a pedestrian in Faversham was seriously injured by a vehicle which then left the scene.

At around 7.45pm on Saturday 27 September a 65 year old man was struck as he was walking in the North Lane area, close to the junction with Partridge Lane.

In the moments before the collision a Ford Focus and another small hatchback were seen travelling south on North Lane in the direction of South Road.

Officers from the Serious Collision Investigation Unit are keen to speak to the drivers of these vehicles as they may have important information or witnessed a Nissan flatbed / tipper’s movements before the collision. 

Following the collision the victim was taken to a London hospital where he remains in a critical condition.

Three people were arrested in connection with the collision and have since been released on bail.

Anyone who may have seen the incident or Nissan tipper in the area are urged to contact Kent Police.

Dashcam or phone footage can be uploaded via our online portal.

Witnesses can also provide information by contacting Kent Police on 01622 798538 and quoting reference BS/CF/066/25, or by emailing [email protected]
