A PENSIONER broke both legs and suffered minor head injuries in a hit-and-run accident in Leigh.
The 76-year-old man was struck by a metallic green Ford Fiesta in Chapel Street at 4.20pm yesterday and was taken to the Royal Bolton Hospital where he is recovering today. The driver failed to stop.
It is thought the man crossed the road in front of the car. Police are appealing for witnesses.
