The driver of the Citroen Berlingo left the scene prior to police arrival and officers would like this person to come forward as they may be able to assist with enquiries.
The 33-year-old male passenger of this vehicle was taken to James Cook University Hospital where he received treatment for a fracture to his arm.

The public are being urged to think twice before attending A&E as the thaw puts pressure on NHS services.
Following the severe weather, people across the North East are being urged to stay away from A&E unless they are seriously unwell or in need of critical or life-saving care.
Members of the public are being reminded to think before dialling 999 and only call if they have a life threatening emergency.
The plea – from all NHS providers in the region – comes as attendances at A&E have soared since the snow has melted with extremely high numbers of very sick patients requiring treatment.
NHS providers are reminding people who are not seriously ill to seek alternatives wherever possible.
