A 35-year-old man has been arrested after a teenage cyclist was hit by a car in Lincoln, police have said.

Emergency services were called to the Sincil Bank area of the city at about 15:30 BST on Monday.

The car was driven away from the scene after colliding with a 13-year-old boy on his bike. He was left with non-life-threatening injuries, officers said.

The arrested man had since been released under investigation, according to Lincolnshire Police.

Officers said they had also located a vehicle they wanted to trace after an earlier appeal.
