An elderly woman was taken to hospital after being hit by a runaway van while on Stockton High Street.
The 81-year-old suffered minor injuries to her leg and face after a white Mercedes Sprinter van ran her down outside Specsavers, at the Castlegate Shopping Centre.
It is believed the van’s handbrake was left off and the van rolled backwards into the pensioner just before 3.30pm today.
The lady was taken to hospital by ambulance for treatment to a cut to her nose.
