Peel Regional Police have released images of a vehicle allegedly involved in a hit-and-run in Brampton last month that left a 66-year-old woman with serious injuries.
Police said in a news release Monday that the collision happened on Sept. 26 around 6:45 p.m.
The statement said the victim was using a crosswalk at James Potter and Ashby Field roads, near Bovaird Drive West, when she was hit by a vehicle.
