Police in southern Poland are searching for a driver who hit an 85-year-old pedestrian and fled the scene. The incident occured on December 21st in the village of Wesoła. The elderly woman was knocked to the ground and left seriously injured on the roadway. Surveillance footage shows her struggling to move, attempting to stop passing cars as snow fell and visibility dropped. Over the next two minutes, 13 vehicles drove past without offering help. Eventually, another female driver stopped, called emergency services, and alerted residents, who then brought a blanket for the injured woman. According to police, the octogenarian suffered a serious leg injury but has recently been discharged from the hospital. Officers stress that failing to assist an injured person is a criminal offense under Polish law. #Elderly #HitAndRun #Accident #Poland
