A man was taken to hospital in serious but stable condition after a hit-and-run accident Tuesday night.

Saskatoon police said a male pedestrian was found unconscious after being struck by a car on the 300 block of 23rd Street just after 9 p.m. Tuesday. Reports say the man was walking on the road and was hit as the car backed onto the roadway.

The suspect vehicle, described as an older tan or beige station wagon, left the scene without checking on the man’s condition.

Police said the victim was not carrying identification at the time of the accident and attempts to determine his identity will be made Wednesday.
