A Dunedin woman who was running late for work had her day made worse when she became the victim of a hit-and-run.
Brenda Harwood, an Allied Press employee, said she was driving in Castle St at 9.35am yesterday when a car ran a red light in Hanover St and crashed into her vehicle.
The car ‘‘came out of nowhere like a rocket’’, she said.
By the time she had pulled over the other motorist had driven away.
The accident gave her a shock, but she was uninjured.
A police spokeswoman said they were working to locate the driver.
