Christchurch hit and run? Watch out for a red car with rego: FMT457

**EJK** · 12th December 2010, 21:42

Heard from a friend that she witnessed a purposeful hit and run. She described that the driver chased then crashed him. Suspects that the driver was a skin head. The driver threatened to kill the bike rider if he'd call the cops. I don't know the full story but it sounded serious. In the mean time she said, quote: "All the biker watch out for a red car with rego: FMT457".

The incident was reported to the police.

Hopefully the rider is OK?
Damage to the bike??

Sounds a little more serious that merely a "hit & run".

Let's hope she doesn't have to give a written statement.
