A man was struck by a car in a hit-and-run incident while he was crossing Jericho Turnpike at the intersection of Frank Avenue early last Friday morning, according to Nassau County Police.

Homicide Squad detectives said the unidentified 38-year-old man was struck by an eastbound silver/gray 2013 Volkswagen Jetta, at 7:46 a.m. on April 25. Detectives said the Jetta then struck another car before fleeing the scene without stopping.

The victim, who suffered multiple trauma injuries, was transported to an area hospital and was admitted for treatment, police said. Police were unable to give any further details about the victim’s condition early this week as the search for the motorist who hit him continued.

Detectives ask anyone with information about this incident to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-244-TIPS. All callers will remain anonymous.
