"Because of the time the incident occurred the motorist may have had the impression that an animal rather than a human was hit.
"I would therefore like to speak to anyone who has been in collision with anything and however small along this road during that night.
"I urge the driver in question to do the right thing and speak with the police.
"I am also appealing for witnesses to the collision as I need to establish exactly what happened."
