Four people have been arrested at addresses in Burton and Derby in connection with an alleged hit and run in Normanton.

The arrests, which were made in the early hours of this morning, came just days after CCTV footage was released of a 19-year-old man being struck by a car and thrown into the air.

The man was crossing Normanon Road, in Derby, when a dark car, believed to be an Audi A3, approaches at speed.

He was seen flying into the air and landing metres away on the pavement. The footage was later released by Derbyshire Constabulary as part of a witness appeal.

Police said the collision left the young man with life-changing injuries.
