SEATTLE — One person was hurt and taken to hospital following a hit-and-run in North Seattle Monday afternoon, according to police.
Seattle police and fire crew confirmed that a black Range Rover SUV collided with a parked vehicle and a bystander was struck. The bystander was a 44-year-old man, who was a construction worker on a job site. He was taken to hospital in stable condition, and the driver of the Range Rover ran off.
Witnesses told police the victim was thrown into the air.
According to the Seattle Department of Transportation, the collision on Greenwood Avenue North, just south of 115th Street, blocked all southbound lanes in Seattle’s Broadview neighborhood. Drivers were asked to use alternative routes around 4:45 p.m.

SPD says the vehicle is registered out of Spokane. It was not reported stolen and it’s unclear if the registered owner was driving.
One suspect is described as a man between 40-50 years old, who is about 5′8″ and thin and has a long afro.
