Motorcyclist left with serious injuries after Rugeley hit-and-run - police appeal for information
Staffordshire police are appealing for information after a motorcyclist was left with serious injuries after a crash with a car that didn't stop.
Officers responded to the scene at around 5.15 on Friday (July 4) on Penkridge Bank Road at the junction of Marquis Drive.
The motorcyclist, a man in his 20s, was airlifted to hospital having sustained serious head, facial and torso injuries. He remains in a stable condition in hospital.
It is believed a black Volkswagen Golf was involved in the crash, but fled the scene towards Cannock.
A 41-year-old man, from the Cannock area, handed himself in to police a short time later and was arrested on suspicion of failure to stop at the scene of a collision.
Police say he is due to be interviewed in connection with the collision later this week.
Anyone who saw the collision or has relevant dashcam footage is urged to contact police on 101 quoting incident number 619 of 4 July. To report anonymously, contact Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
