Authorities are asking for the public’s help locating a stolen vehicle used to hit a pedestrian in Montgomery County Monday night and for any additional information related to the crime.

Before losing consciousness, deputies say he was able to tell them he was hit by a vehicle. The victim was flown to a Nashville hospital, where authorities say he is listed in critical condition.
During the course of the investigation, investigators were able to determine the victim was driving a 1995 white Ford Explorer. Investigators say they believe the victim was carjacked and then hit by the vehicle as the suspect drove off.
