Police are trying to identify a pedestrian who was critically injured in a New Year’s Eve crash in Silver Spring.

The Montgomery County Police Department asks for the public’s help identifying the pedestrian, who was taken to a hospital with life-threatening injuries and remains there in critical condition, according to police.

Officers and fire rescue responded at about 6:11 p.m. Tuesday for a pedestrian who was reportedly struck by at least one driver while crossing University Boulevard at East Franklin Avenue.

Police described the victim as a Hispanic male in his early thirties who was wearing jeans, a black jacket, and a black shirt. Detectives think he may live near East Franklin Avenue.
