FREMONT, Calif. -- Police are asking for the public's help in tracking down a man who hit a 14-year-old boy with his car in Fremont Monday morning, a police spokeswoman said.

Police responded to a report of a hit-and-run accident at the intersection of Nicolet Avenue and MacKenzie Place at about 7:35 a.m. Monday, Officer Geneva Bosques said.

A red four-door sedan car hit the boy while he was in a crosswalk, Bosques said.
