THE police are seeking the help of the public in identifying a man who is currently in a critical condition at the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC).

The man was reportedly struck down two Tuesdays ago on the Strathspey Railway Embankment, East Coast Demerara (ECD), around 19:45h by a motorcar, which was at the time being driven by a 33-year-old Friendship, ECD resident.

According to the police, the car (PVV 9941) was proceeding west along the railway embankment when the unidentified man allegedly ran across the road straight into its path.
He was reportedly taken by public-spirited persons to the GPHC, where he has since been warded, while the driver of the vehicle who was taken into police custody, is now out on bail.

The police are calling on anyone with information that could identify the injured man to urgently make contact with them.
