Charged over collision with pedestrian

A man has been charged after allegedly failing to stop and assist after a collision with a pedestrian at Lisarow last month.

At about 2.55pm on Friday, February 7, emergency services were called to Railway Cres, following reports a child had been hit by a car.

Officers found a 12-year-old girl had been hit by a car while crossing the road before the vehicle allegedly left the scene.

NSW Ambulance paramedics treated the child at the scene before she was taken to John Hunter Hospital for the treatment of arm and leg injuries.

Police established a crime scene and officers from the Crash Investigation Unit commenced an investigation into the incident.

Following inquiries, officers attended a home at Lisarow on Monday, March 24, where they spoke with a 43-year-old man.

He was issued a court attendance notice for fail to stop and assist after impact cause injury, and not give particulars to injured person.

Police will allege in court that the man failed to stop and render assistance or provide his particulars to the pedestrian following the crash.

He will appear before Gosford Local Court on Tuesday, April 29.
