Police in Orlando, Fla., are searching for the driver who hit a man and left him for dead in a road early Monday, according to Local 6 News.
Investigators said the man was hit just off Colonial Drive near Bennett Road in Orlando just before 3 a.m. Monday.
A man in his 20s was transported to Orlando Regional Medical Center in critical condition.
"He was injured pretty bad," witness Jerry Bonhomme said. "Blood was coming out of his mouth and out of his elbow and his sides. It seemed that he got him pretty hard and the vehicle just kept rolling."
Officers were not sure what type of vehicle hit him but were investigating a car with damage at a nearby apartment complex early Monday. Police did not release the man's identity.
Anyone with information concerning this crime is urged to call Crimeline at (800) 423-TIPS.
