By Staff Report

The Florida Highway Patrol is looking for a vehicle involved in a hit-and-run crash Monday night that left a man seriously injured in Marion County.

Christopher Peters of Silver Springs had been walking north along County Road 314 at 7:30 p.m. when a black pick-up truck also traveling north, veered east, off the roadway. The right side of the vehicle struck Peters. After the collision, the black pick-up truck left the scene of the crash. Black vehicle parts, including a passenger side mirror, were found at the scene. A witness at the scene provided information on the truck. Anyone with further information about this crash is asked to contact the Florida Highway Patrol.
