Sanford police believe they have found a vehicle believed to have been involved in a hit-and-run Saturday that injured a 12-year-old boy who was riding a bike.

The boy suffered serious injuries when he was struck near the intersection of Pioneer Avenue and Mousam Street.

The vehicle involved in the accident was believed to be a Toyota Avalon.

Police used social media to ask the public to help them locate the vehicle.

On Monday, a tip led police to the parking lot outside Walmart in Biddeford, where they found a silver Toyota Avalon with front bumper damage.

The Portland Press Herald reports two people were questioned at the scene, and the vehicle was impounded for further investigation and forensic testing.

Police say no arrests have been made.
