Two men have been arrested following a collision on the A31 Farnham by-pass in the early hours of Saturday (June 5).

The arrests were made after members of the public came forward with information following a media appeal.

Police were called around 1.20 am to the westbound carriageway between the junctions of Weydon Lane and the Coxbridge roundabout following reports that a female pedestrian had been found lying in the road with serious injuries.

She remains in hospital in a serious but stable condition.

The car failed to stop following the collision but has since been located.

A 22-year-old man and a 23-year-old man from Aldershot were arrested on suspicion of a number of offences including causing serious injury while driving, assault causing grievous bodily harm, driving while unfit through drink or drugs, failing to report an accident and failing to stop at the scene of an accident. Both have been released under investigation.

A police spokesperson said: “Enquiries remain ongoing and we are still appealing for information and particularly anyone with any dashcam footage from the area at the time. If you can help, please contact us straightway quoting reference PR/45210058278 via:
