Police are appealing for witnesses after a hit and run in Overseal at the weekend.

The two-car collision happened in Burton Road, at the junction with Woodville Road, in the early hours of Saturday.

"A Derbyshire Constabularly spokesman said: "Just before 1am on Saturday we were called to reports of a collision between two vehicles, a Peugeot 308 and a Chrysler Crossfire.
