Police are looking for the driver of a red pickup that struck a pedestrian in west Salina Tuesday evening.

Gary Brown was attempting to cross the street in the 1500 block of West Crawford Street just east of Choctaw Avenue and was northbound using a handicap walking cart, Salina Police Captain Paul Forrester reported this morning.

According to Forrester, a red pickup that was traveling westbound on West Crawford Street struck Brown and then continued westbound without stopping.

Evidence left at the scene indicates the pickup is a 97-03 Ford, Forrester noted. Police are looking for surveillance video in the area for additional evidence, he added.

Brown sustained serious, but not life threatening injuries, Forrester reported.
