A driver left a 15-year-old boy injured at the side of the road in Fort William yesterday after she hit him with her car.
The boy was walking and pushing an off-road motorbike on Connochie Road, near the junction with Lundavra Road, at around 5.50pm when he was struck by the vehicle.
A dark-haired woman got out the car, which was grey and displaying L plates, and spoke to the teenager.
However, she then drove off without providing any details, leaving him with his injuries beside the road.
Police are now seeking witnesses to the incident.
