Ludlow hit-and-run accused still missing
A man accused of deliberately knocking down a woman as she crossed a town centre road is still on the run one year after the collision, it has been revealed.
Stephen Cross, 28, of Bark Piece in Birmingham, is being sought by West Mercia Police with a warrant out for his arrest. He was arrested following the hit-and-run collision in Ludlow, outside the Bull Hotel on Corve Street, just after midnight on October 11.
The woman hit was mother-of-two Kellie Lysy, 24, who was going for a drink after watching a boxing tournament that her friend's son had been taking part in.
She was left in a critical condition with multiple broken bones and internal bleeding, and still has to use crutches a year later. Connie Osborne, spokeswoman for West Mercia Police, said Cross had been charged with wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm and causing serious injury by dangerous driving.
But he failed to attend Shrewsbury Crown Court in April and a warrant has been issued for his arrest.
Anyone with information on his whereabouts can call West Mercia Police on 101.
