A 90-year-old man has been left fighting for his life after being struck by a car in South Lanarkshire.
The pensioner, who was using a three-wheeled walking aid, was crossing the road when he was hit by a red Ford Kuga at around 9.25am on Friday.
He was taken by ambulance to the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow where medical staff describe his condition as critical.
Police are now appealing for information to the incident that took place on Hamilton’s Leechlee Road, near to Brandon Street.
