A DRIVER who mowed down a four-year-old girl in broad daylight has been found by cops.
The 27-year-old woman behind the wheel of a grey Renault Captur left the little girl in Dumbarton Road with a serious leg injury early on Monday afternoon.
The tot remains in the Royal Hospital for Sick Children with a serious leg injury.
We told yesterday how cops have launched a hunt to find the careless driver.
Police said they are now trying to build up a "full picture" of what happened and are pleading for witnesses to come forward.
Sergeant Roy McCarney of the Road Policing Unit said: “We have now traced the driver who is assisting police with their enquiries, however it is still vital that we speak to any witnesses to this incident, in order to confirm a full picture of the circumstances.
"This happened on a sunny afternoon at lunchtime, there will have been plenty of people around, and I would appeal to anyone who saw anything to get in touch.
“I would also like to reiterate our plea for motorists with dash-cams who were travelling through the area at the time to please check their footage in case they have captured the incident or a grey Renault Captur driving on the road before or afterwards.
“Anyone with information is asked to contact Police Scotland through 101, quoting incident number 1550 of Monday, July 19."
