A Falmouth man suffered life threatening injuries in a collision with a car at a pedestrian crossing on Dracaena Avenue yesterday evening.
The 37-year-old man sustained a serious head injury during the collision with a silver Ford Ka, driven by a 20 year old woman, at 9.35pm by the junction with Laburnum Drive. The driver was uninjured.
He was taken to Treliske Hospital, and later transferred to Derriford Hospital in Plymouth where he remains in critical condition.
The road was closed for almost five hours while officers from Bodmin Serious Collisions Investigation Unit carried out an examination of the scene.
Officers are appealing for witnesses to the incident and are particularly keen to speak to anyone who may have seen the car travelling on Dracaena Avenue or the man on or near the crossing.
Anyone who can assist is asked to contact police on 101, quoting log number 787 of 28/05/15.
