Police have released images of the vehicle they believe fled the scene after the collision.

On Tuesday at around 1:35 p.m., Calgary police said the septuagenarian was hit in a Sobeys parking lot in the community of Cranston.

Police believe the woman was pushing a shopping cart across the parking lot when the vehicle, a dark-blue, two-door, 2005-2010 Chevrolet Cobalt with black rims, reversed out of a west-facing parking stall and hit the woman, knocking her over and causing serious but non-life-threatening injuries before driving away.

Police said the woman was transported to hospital in stable condition but her health has subsequently worsened.

Police are looking to speak with a man who was in the area and is believed to have information that could help the investigation.

Police describe the man as having a medium build and light brown facial hair. He was last seen wearing a black baseball hat with white Toronto Blue Jays logo, sunglasses, a black jacket, a dark-coloured shirt with a white design on the front, dark jeans and black shoes.
