''The 19-year-old female victim of a hit-and-run in Markham was carried on the hood and windshield of the suspect vehicle for 50 metres, York Regional Police say as they appeal for help finding the driver.''

'Around 3:40 p.m. on Thursday, officers were called to the intersection of Denison St. and Featherstone Ave. and located the victim on the roadway, east of the intersection.'

“This vehicle continued with the victim on their hood for about 50 metres. They would have known that they had struck somebody as they carried her for quite some time.''

''Investigators are appealing for witnesses and for help finding the driver and suspect vehicle — an electric blue, four-door Honda Civic believed to be a 2016 to 2020 model.

The vehicle had chrome trim, tinted passenger windows, and winter tires with steel rims and will have damage to its front-end and windshield, police said.''
