A firefighter is in hospital with serious injuries after being hit by a vehicle that failed to stop at the scene of the accident.

The driver of a Peugeot hit two pedestrians before driving off without stopping.

The incident occurred on Saturday 11th August at around 23:00 hrs on George Street, Corby.

One of the pedestrians, an on-duty firefighter, was rushed to hospital with a number of serious injuries which are not believed to be life threatening.

The second person hit by the vehicle did not require any medical attention.

The vehicle involved in the incident was later found by Police abandoned in near-by Studfall Avenue.

Chief fire officer Darren Dovey, from Northamptonshire Fire and Rescue Service, told the Northamptonshire Telegraph:

‘I am thankful that our firefighter did not suffer life threatening injuries in the incident, however he does remain in hospital with what doctors are describing as a range of serious injuries.

‘We continue to provide support to him, his family and colleagues who were left very shaken by the incident and aim to help him return to work when he is fully recovered’.

Witnesses or anyone with any information which might help Police to identify the driver can contact the Police on 101 or can call crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111

Before you go...

We need your help. As former emergency services & armed forces personnel, we pride ourselves on bringing you important, fast-moving and breaking news stories & videos which are free from the negative bias which is often directed at the emergency services & NHS by some sections of the mainstream media.

One of the reasons we started 'Emergency Services News' back in 2018 was because we became tired of reading badly informed stories about the emergency services & NHS which seemed only ever to highlight negative aspects of the job.

We want to be the unheard voice of the remarkable men and women who serve in the emergency services, NHS and armed forces. And with around 500k page views each month, we are getting there!

As income from ads, the mainstay source of income for most publishers, continues to decline; we need the help of you, our readers.

You can support emergency services news from as little as £1. It only takes a minute. Every contribution, however big or small, is vital for our future.

Please help us to continue to highlight the life-saving work of the emergency services, NHS and armed forces by becoming a supporter.
