Default Hit and Run Birmingham Digbeth

Just had a black E46 BMW Cab/Convertible cut in front of us at a junction and hit us.

Weren't able to get number plates because they were turning and we were going straight so by the time we turned around they were gone.

Happened in Digbeth where Camp Hill and Bradford Street join up at around 21:30 - 21:40.

If you see the car BMW with damage to r/ns (rear passenger side) quarter or bumper let me know.

Haven't got FB but if you could share it on there than it would be appreciated.

To say I'm pissed is a massive understatement.

Not sure if you know Birmingham but we were on the main road heading towards the city centre, it is multi lane and the guy who hit us was heading in the opposite direction so effectively going away from town. He decided to turn right, so would have been our left if we were turning. Thats when the crash happened.

By the time we came to a stop we were past the turning anyway so had to do a U turn. When we went up the road he turned into he was long gone. We tried to give chase and look to see if he had taken one of the roads leading off. But due to him having that head start we couldn't see him.

Trying a few places that have cctv to see if they have anything etc.

If he had hit the side and was heading in the same direction then different story we would have had time to possible get the numberplate etc.
