Date published: 04 November 2012
A man has been arrested following the death of Callum Hilton in a fail-to-stop collision.
Shortly after 1.30pm on Sunday 4 November 2012, a 32-year-old man was arrested in the Radcliffe area on Bury on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving. He remains in police custody for questioning.
An unoccupied silver Peugeot that was initially recovered near to Bury town centre shortly after the incident has now been ruled out of the inquiry. It is now believed another silver Peugeot 206 was the vehicle involved.
Police are continuing to appeal to anyone with information to come forward.
Detective Inspector Amber Waywell said: "We have made an arrest but I would continue to appeal to anyone who witnessed the incident to come forward.
"Callum's family have suffered an unimaginable loss. He was just on his way to a party with friends and sadly will never be coming home to his family. They deserve to know exactly what happened so I would urge anyone who either witnessed what happened or has information about the movements of the silver Peugeot 206 to come forward."
Anyone with information should call police on 101 or the independent charity Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.
