Driver sought as man dragged by car after collision confrontation
A man was dragged along by a car after confronting its driver following a Sandwell collision.
The 30-year-old was involved in a collision with another car, the driver of which failed to stop.
The man then followed the vehicle and caught up with the driver at a set of traffic lights. He parked in front of the blue Audi A4, got out and went to speak to the other motorist.
As he grabbed the driver's door, the Audi driver reversed his car and made off towards Newton Road, while the man was still holding the handle.
The driver of the grey Ford Focus was dragged along, suffering cuts and bruising to his hand as a result.
Police are appealing for witneses to help identify the driver of the car which sped off following a collision in Walsall Road at Stonecross Island, at 6.50am on Sunday, February 15.
A 30-year old man was driving his grey Ford Focus along Walsall Road, near to Sandy Lane, when his car was hit by a blue Audi A4.
PC Sarah Russell from Smethwick's violent crime team, said: "We are hoping to trace the driver of this Audi, vehicle registration X768 JUK, which deliberately reversed and sped off, causing the injuries to the man. The incident took place at a busy junction and I am asking anyone who saw what happened to call police on 101."
