A 23-year-old man has been left in a serious condition after he was struck by a vehicle in the state’s north.
Just before midnight last night, three men were walking along the shoulder of the Old Pacific Highway in Brunswick Heads.
Police say, without warning, one of the men, a 23-year-old, walked into the middle of the road near the intersection with Newberry Parade. He was struck by a utility which failed to stop, driving off at a high speed.
The man was taken by ambulance to Gold Coast Hospital to receive treatment for serious head injuries.
Police are now searching for a single cab utility, white in colour, possibly an early 90s model, which has lowered suspension, a ladder rack at the rear of the tray, and is likely to have damage to the driver’s side front lights and grill.
