Police have released an image of a red van investigators believe was involved in a hit-and-run which left a Wellington man in a critical condition.
Officers were called to Argentine Ave in Miramar about 8.20pm on Sunday where a man was struck and injured by a passing vehicle.
Police say the man is now in a critical condition in Wellington Hospital.
"Witnesses describe a red van, which travelled north on Argentine Ave, turning left onto Chelsea St," Detective Sergeant Rebekah Cusin said.
"The van would have damage to the front windscreen/left wing mirror."
Cusin said investigators had obtained an image of the van, which may be a Mitsubishi L300 or Toyota Hiace. Investigators are continuing to appeal for sightings of the van.
Anyone with information is asked to contact police via 105 or anonymously through Crime Stoppers.
