Police are appealing for help finding a woman after an alleged hit-and-run in Napier last week.
The incident at about 6pm last Thursday saw a Mazda Astina hit a woman in the front yard of a Wyatt Ave address.
The impact pushed the victim into a tree. The vehicle left the scene but was later found on nearby Dockery Ave.
Police believe the car was involved in a collision with another vehicle parked on Wyatt Ave and another on Roberts Terrace shortly before the victim was struck.
A warrant to arrest has now been issued for Nastashia Edwards in connection with the incident.

"The victim was transferred to Hawke's Bay Hospital's intensive care unit in a critical condition. She remains in a serious but stable condition in hospital," Eastern District Police wrote on Facebook.
"We believe Ms Edwards can help us understand the events that led to the victim receiving life-threatening injuries."
Anyone with information about Edwards' whereabouts is urged to call 105.
