Police are searching for a driver who left a schoolboy fighting for his life after a hit-and-run crash on King Street, Gillingham, last Wednesday evening.
The boy suffered a triple leg break when he was struck by a silver Mercedes CLK at around 6:10pm. The driver then sped off, leaving chaos behind.
