Pedestrian Suffers Minor Injuries After Collision In Newport

A pedestrian has suffered minor injuries after colliding with a car in Newport.

Police were called to Whitepit Lane, Newport at 1.47am on Friday morning (5).

The ambulance service was also called to the incident.

A Hampshire Constabulary spokesperson said the pedestrian - a man in his 30s - sustained minor injuries.

Posting on Isle of Wight Police Facebook, Sgt Radford, said:

"Even though I have been a police officer for many years, sometimes when you hear an incident that contains concerning details you do think ‘oh god’ and hope for an early update when an officer arrives.

"Thankfully it was not as bad as initially thought and the person was taken to hospital."
