Police have revealed a pedestrian died weeks after being hit by a car - and are urging more witnesses to come forward.
The man, aged in his 50s, was left fighting for his life in a London hospital following the collision on Folkestone Road, near Dover Priory railway station, in December.
But tragically, he died from his injuries a few weeks later.
Officers believe there are members of the public who saw the crash who they have not yet spoken to.

“The pedestrian, a man in his 50s, was taken to a London hospital where he sadly died from his injuries a few weeks later.
“Officers from the Serious Collision Investigation Unit have been carrying out enquiries to establish the full circumstances of the collision including reviewing CCTV footage.
