Toronto police are on the hunt for the driver of stolen vehicle who fled the scene after hitting a pedestrian downtown.
It happened on College Street near Yonge Street just after 5 a.m. Thursday.
A Range Rover was heading east on College near Yonge when the driver allegedly rear-ended a parked car and mounted the sidewalk, then took out hydrant, hit a light pole, and struck a male pedestrian at a streetcar stop.
During the collision with the parked car, the Range Rover lost its right front wheel and the driver turned south on Yonge. The driver got out and fled on foot.
The pedestrian is in hospital with serious but not life-threatening head injuries.
