It happened late on Sunday evening
A pedestrian has died in hospital after a hit-and-run in West Lothian late last night.
The 53-year-old was struck by an unknown vehicle at about 11.05pm on Sunday September 20 on the B792 Torphichen to Bathgate road.
The driver failed to stop and has not yet been identified.
Emergency services attended and took the 53-year-old to the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh, where he died shortly afterwards.
Inspector Peter Houston said: "This was a serious incident and our thoughts at this time are with the family and friends of the man who sadly lost his life.
"Our inquiries into the cause of the crash are continuing and I would ask anyone who saw what happened, and has not yet spoken to officers, to come forward.
"We are particularly interested to speak to anyone who was on the B792 before the collision and may have seen the deceased walking - he was wearing all dark clothing.
"Equally, we would like to speak to anyone who may have seen a dark vehicle in the area either before or after the time of the collision, it may have had fresh damage.
"Anyone with information or anyone who may dashcam footage which can help the investigation is asked to contact police on 101, quoting incident number 4127 of Sunday 20 September."
