Worcester police seek car involved in scooter hit-and-run

Worcester police are asking for the public’s help locating a vehicle allegedly involved in a hit-and-run earlier this month with a scooter that left the rider with serious injuries. 

Police said a man on an electric scooter was traveling east on June Street around 3:10 a.m. on July 19 when he was struck by a car. The 26-year-old man was hospitalized with serious injuries as a result of the crash, and police said the driver of the car did not stop, fleeing the scene. 

Surveillance video captured the car, which police described as a blue four-door sedan with fog lights and rims. 

“Any damage on the vehicle would be located on the front passengers’ side bumper, hood, or even windshield,” police said. 

The investigation into the crash is ongoing, and police are asking anyone with information to share information anonymously with investigators by texting 274637 TIPWPD, submitting a message at worcesterma.gov/police, or calling (508) 799-8674.
