Philadelphia Police are trying to find the driver and the car that struck a male and left him lying in the road.  The driver never stopped or slowed down.  Apparently, the driver knew they hit someone, as there will be damage to the vehicle.

This happened at 4:27 AM at the intersection of Caster Ave. and Loney Street.  A blue car was north,  hit the pedestrian and continued before turning right onto Ripley Street.

 

 

The pedestrian, a ho9meless male was rushed to Jefferson Hospital, Torresdale Division, in very critical condition with head wounds.  Police are combing the area looking for security footage or possibly doorbell camera footage.
