Hit and run

Moped rider left injured on the ground

On Thursday afternoon, a female moped rider was hit by a car in Dornbirn - the woman fell and sustained minor injuries. The driver of the car then drove off.

At around 2.20 p.m., the young woman was riding her moped on Höchsterstraße in the left-hand turning lane towards Josef-Ganahl-Straße when, out of nowhere, her two-wheeler was hit on the right-hand side by a car. The woman crashed and sustained various injuries and bruises on impact. The unknown driver did not behave in an exemplary manner: instead of attending to the slightly injured woman, he stepped on the gas and fled the scene. 

The Dornbirn police station (Tel. [phone]) would like to hear from any witnesses to the incident.
