Teenage pedestrian killed in Glasgow hit-and-run
BBCA teenager has died after being struck by a car in Glasgow in the early hours of Saturday.
Police Scotland said the 18-year-old was hit on Crow Road at about 12:20 and the vehicle, thought to be a Mercedes car, did not stop at the scene.
He was taken to the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital where he was pronounced dead.
The road was closed between Anniesland Cross and Jordanhill Station but reopened at 14:30.
The light-coloured vehicle, possibly a Mercedes A Class, failed to stop and continued south on Crow Road.
Police Scotland's Sgt Scott Sutherland said: "This incident has left a young man dead, and it is vital we trace the car involved. The vehicle may have some damage, and appears to have lost the Mercedes badge from its bonnet.
"I would appeal directly to the driver of the vehicle involved, asking them to do the right thing and contact us as a matter of urgency.
"If anyone was in the area at the time, or has dash cam footage showing the crash or vehicle involved, or has any knowledge of the current whereabouts of the vehicle I urge them to contact Police Scotland."
