Appeal for car following fatal hit and run

Police investigating the death of an elderly man in a hit and run in Bruton want to trace a car that was seen in the area at the time.

85-year-old David Hick was on his way to the shops with his two dogs on Tuesday evening when he was run down and later died.

Police would like to speak to the driver of a dark Chrysler Grand Voyager, which was driving through the town that evening - possibly heading to Frome or Evercreech.

They are also asking garages and car mechanics to be on the look out as it may have been damaged.
