The man, who was not injured, said the driver never stopped, according to the FHP.
Troopers said they initially believed the vehicle was a white Ford with damage to its front right side but Thursday afternoon they said the owner of a white 2013 Lincoln MKZ contacted them about the crash and that person is now a person of interest in the case.
The vehicle had damage to its front, right side, according to a news release. It is now in the possession of the Florida Highway Patrol.
